Her enthusiasm and passion for her work shines through in all that she does, and when teamed with her sense of commitment and follow-through, there’s is no stopping Rachel from achieving whatever goal is set in front of her.

Nancy (Benedict) Beall, Executive Vice President, Advertising Agency Services at Comscore, Inc.

Rachel is such a talent...I've told many she is the only person I've ever seen receive a standing ovation from a client group after a presentation. Her enthusiasm, intelligence, sales acumen and boundless energy are wonderful assets. Rachel is heading great places and the employer who hitches on that wagon is very, very lucky.

Jenifer Starr, Media Operations Manager, Gregory Welteroth Advertising

Rachel brings contagious energy to work that makes you excited to be there! My interactions with her have always left me ready to take on whatever task was next on my list. I had the pleasure of working with Rachel directly through my agency relationship with comScore, where she was the Lead Account Manager. Not only did she provide my team and I with an incomparable level of customer service and knowledge of the product, but she also negotiated a fantastic deal to help me sell and onboard the product here at the agency.

Kendra Reith, Sales Account Manager

Rachel is incredibly smart and has a knack for articulating complicated concepts to clients and prospects in a way that is clear and concise. I reported directly to Rachel for just shy of two years and I am so grateful for that time. She helped me grow as a salesperson in ways I cannot even put into words. Rachel is dedicated and does the work to get to know clients and prospects...
