Rachel turns ambitious ideas into repeatable results. As Co-Founder founder and Chief Operating Officer of Selling Energy she built the operational engine that carried the company onto the Inc 500|5000 list and co-authored a Wall Street Journal best selling book. When the pandemic shut down in-person events, she orchestrated a rapid shift to an online learning platform that grew recurring revenue tenfold and expanded the client base to every US state and twelve countries.

 

Along the way Rachel collected multiple awards for Female Entrepreneur of the Year, a Golden Bridge Award, and numerous industry honors. More important to her clients, she learned what keeps founder led companies awake at night: unclear processes, slow execution, and talent stretched too thin.

 

As the leader of AT THE HELM and your fractional second in command, she installs rock solid systems, integrates AI and automation for quick high ROI wins, and coaches teams so improvements last long after the engagement ends.

 

When she is not mapping business transformations Rachel can be found leading Scouts on backcountry treks and training for her next summit attempt. The same resilience and focus that push her up mountains keep your projects moving forward.

Mission
Give leaders a steady hand on the wheel so their teams run smarter, scale faster, and create lasting impact.
