hey there, im rachel!

I'm the lady behind the lens and the passion behind the story. I like spending time with my family, dreaming up my next travel plans, and adding to our impressive list of escape rooms we have locally done and traveled to. I have two dogs that know all the commands but do whatever they want to on a regular basis, and they are my couch buddies for nights when our family settles in for watching the next Marvel movie. I’m a foster/adoptive parent and I’ve been riding that rollercoaster since December of 2020. My life is never boring and I wouldn’t have it any other way.

Some more about me.

I am just as happy  potato-ing on a couch watching my go-to shows with my family of 6 as I am in a thrilling escape room, racing the clock with that same family crew. I’m always down to enjoy a game night with my best friends and I have a small card collection ranging from themed sets like "Camping" to "Alice In Wonderland". I’m big on building community and making people feel seen. It’s how I run my business and my life. Now it’s your turn to tell me all about you!

fun facts:

I’ve been to 9 countries and counting. The next places on my list are Scotland, Spain, and Australia, but I’d always go back to Costa Rica, Switzerland, and Italy!

We are a family of 6 - of my 4 kids none of them share my blood, but my title of adoptive mom and step mom are titles I carry with pride. I'm always down to talk about how foster care changed my life. On the fence about foster care? Let's chat!

I'm obsessed with escape rooms. Troy and I do them as our date nights and if we travel anywhere we fit in at least 3 each trip. Thankfully our sons are sick of them yet!

Heather is our “queen of cute”. She may not be in the limelight, but she is my go-to girl for making sure our wedding and boudoir client care packages are all dolled up and are wrapped in love before they are sent to you! You might cross paths with Heather at a wedding expo where she also helps out at the booth!
