Business is about people. We spend more hours at work than with our families, yet so many companies struggle to communicate their stories in a way that will attract the right people for the job and give employees an aligned purpose.

After 13 years of leading recruitment at The Beck Group and The Container Store, Rachel understands the challenges growing firms face in attracting and retaining quality talent. That’s why Southern Lighthouse was created: to help growing businesses shine a light on their stories and share them in a way that attracts those who identify with that light.


Rachel graduated with a Bachelor's in Psychology from Austin College and holds a Master's in Sustainability from Southern Methodist University. She is a mom of two wild boys, a cookie lover, a wife, and a tea aficionado who lives in Dallas, Texas.
