About

Straight to the gut

Stories are the only tangible thing we leave behind when we become a scrappy box of bones. Our stories make us vulnerable, but they also make us real.

Your idea is beating its wings, waiting to climb out. And be warned, I’ll pull it out of you. Doesn’t matter if you’re a dreamer or a schemer. If you want big things and you’re willing to go after them, I can work with you to create a backbone for your editorial, blog, or web copy needs, and then wrap all the right words around it. Let's shake up the box a bit, shall we? Your idea wants out.

If you believe in me, I believe in you.

Rachel's a content strategy loving, editorial design championing, project management training gal with a nose that's about 67 times more sensitive than your average schnoz. No seriously, she's also trained as a bloodhound.

Letting go to become better

I’ve always believed that progress is uncomfortable, so I believe in ideas that turn our world upside down—ones that circumvent or collapse the old relics of our culture that hold us back. I poke and prod antiquated systems and assumptions with sharp words because when these systems become irrelevant, we can let go of our Flintstone past and grab hold of real progress—the kind that makes us better human beings.

Work with me

I work with my better looking half, Travis Gertz, at our studio, Louder Than Ten located in Vancouver, Canada. But make no mistake, I'm not geographically bound and continue to work remotely with internationally recognized companies.
