In 2017, Rachel’s lead editorial work on the main title for FEUD earned her first Emmy nomination.
Rachel started working at MakeMake - Design & Animation (formerly “Elastic”) as a freelance editor for what she thought was going to be a day-long gig. Since 2018, she has contributed to a myriad of Emmy-nominated main titles, such as The Politician and Game of Thrones: Season 8. Rachel and her team at MakeMake took home the Emmy three years in a row for Outstanding Main Title Design for The Last of Us (2023), SHŌGUN (2024), and Omnivore (2025, News & Documentary Emmy Awards).
In addition to editing title sequences, Rachel exercises her wide range of skills in freelance projects including commercials, visual effects, and montage editing. She has also built a portfolio as a main title designer, crafting original designs for opening sequences for indie films. Beyond editing and design, Rachel is a collector and a LEGO enthusiast, whose whole history can be scored by her eclectic collection of intentionally curated playlists for every mood and occasion. A proud mom of two dogs and two cats, she embraces care and creativity in all aspects of her life.
