Rachel is passionate about giving back to her community and values the opportunity to serve alongside her family. She has been involved with the Young Men’s Service League since 2021, volunteering with her son Grant throughout his high school years and now continuing that tradition with her son Parker. She is also beginning to expand her involvement with Widow Strong, where she volunteers and donates, with plans to become more actively engaged.

Rachel has been married to her husband, Scott, for 26 years and is a proud mom to their two sons, Grant and Parker. Grant is a sophomore at the University of Georgia, majoring in Finance and Accounting, while Parker is a 10th grader at Johns Creek High School, where he plays both football and soccer.

Rachel and her family have been active members of North Point Community Church for the past 18 years and enjoy giving back through initiatives like the Be Rich campaign, which supports those in need throughout the community.

Outside of work, Rachel enjoys spending time with her family, playing tennis, and being outdoors. They love boating and wakeboarding on Lake Hartwell, and hiking at Chattahoochee National River Park has become a cherished fall and Thanksgiving tradition.

Thailand has always been at the top of my travel list.

What is something people might be surprised to learn about you?

I first met my husband in chemistry class at Dunwoody High School.

If you could eat only one meal for the rest of your life, what would it be?

What’s the best advice you’ve ever received?

When my kids were young, I was talking with a coach about work-life balance and admitted that I always felt like I was working on it. She reminded me that life is always changing – kids grow up, schedules shift, and priorities evolve – so balance is not something you “arrive at,” but something you keep adjusting. That perspective helped me stop feeling like I was failing and start giving myself more grace.
