Rachel ignites refreshing faith through music, speaking, writing and humor.
She cranks out music, faith pearls, and humor in a way that's instantly engaging. Rachel gets fired up when spiritual lightbulbs go off all over the room. Full of joy, Jesus, and animation, her audiences are invited into a deeper, authentic place with God.
Through 20+ years of pain and illness, Rachel's battle for answers and healing has deepened her teaching, music, and messages. Her faith is resilient and road-worthy. God has proven faithful through every detour. Fueled by Holy Spirit, Rachel's ultimate passion is to lead her listeners to life-change. She wants everyone to meet and fall in love with Jesus.
Rachel caught the attention of the Gospel Music Association when she took home awards for Song of the Year, Artist of the Year, Best in Show, and Judges Choice at the GMA Immerse Conference. This earned her a spotlight performance on the Cinderella Castle Stage at Walt Disney World, opening for TobyMac.
She has shared the stage with artists such as Matthew West, Jars of Clay, and MercyMe.
Rachel was mentored and signed by music publisher veteran Cindy Wilt Colville (Matthew West, Jason Ingram, Cindy Morgan) in Nashville, TN as a staff songwriter.
Rachel continues to write, tour, and speak independently at Women’s Retreats, Conferences, High School Chapels, Rescue Missions, Celebrate Recovery Meetings, Churches, and Prisons.
Her style is considered Redemptive Acoustic Pop. She sounds like a blend of Francesca Battistelli, Ingrid Michaelson and Sara Bareilles.
DISNEY WORLD, CINDERELLA CASTLE STAGE
She’s the real deal. Honest. Authentic. “One of us.” Rachel lives with her brainy husband Derek, and their corn-chip-smelling old lab mix, Joey Smiley Wiggle Sox.
