Rachel Nelson

Showcasing 19 Years in Communication & Marketing

I thrive at the intersection of strategy and execution — where ideas become deliverables, and deliverables drive results.

I’m a multidisciplinary storyteller, strategist and creative producer with a passion for turning complex ideas into compelling content.

Whether I’m ghostwriting for medical professionals, producing video series across Texas, or designing high-converting websites, I bring clarity, creativity, and purpose to every project.

With a foundation in investigative journalism and editorial leadership, I’ve built a career that spans performance marketing, public sector communications, and brand development for startups. I’ve helped launch new publications, steer SEO strategy, and craft visual identities that resonate — all while keeping the audience at the heart of the story.

What I Do Best

  • Marketing Strategy & SEO: From omni-channel campaigns to earned press coverage, I help brands grow their visibility and authority.
  • Design & Web: I’ve led the creative direction for WordPress websites, pricing guides, and social media graphics that drive engagement and conversions.
  • Video Production: As co-producer of the TRS Talks series, I travel across Texas to capture powerful stories from educators and retirees — handling everything from planning to second camera operation.
  • Media Relations: I specialize in earning high-profile media placements on websites such as Bustle, Martha Stewart Living, HR.com, CEO Blog Nation, Psych Central and Digital Journal.
  • Journalism & Editorial: I’ve served as editor for Community Impact Newspaper, delivering in-depth coverage on local government, education, health care and development in one of the nation’s fastest-growing cities.
