Rachel has been running the social media at Berkeley Law for nearly seven years, growing the law school’s channels from near-inception into a vibrant voice and vehicle for her team’s communications strategy. After earning an undergraduate degree in journalism and being a Juris doctor, Rachel found an ideal hybrid career in law school communications.
