Our Co-Director
Rachel Russell entered her first pageant at the age of 7 months! Over the next 4 years she went on to win many local, state and national pageant and photogenic titles. She didn't enter a pageant again until she was 16 when her mom challenged Rachel at the last minute (3 hours notice to be precise!) to compete. She was a walk-in, but won the Teen Over-All title. Then she entered the state pageant 4 months later and placed in the Top 5!
We shouldn't be surprised that Rachel did so well, having grown up around pageantry all of her life. With mom, Marilyn, competing, directing, coaching and judging and older sister Maryn competing through the Miss America system, from a young age Rachel grew to love pageantry and helping "pageants girls" no matter their age (or hers!)
Rachel will be attending TMCC to attain her AA degree/ certification as a radiology technician.
Like her mom, she is passionate about helping others, especially where children are concerned. Rachel recently spent 2 1/2 weeks in Central America helping to renovate a school and assisted the children in their summer reading program.
She is happy to be working with her mom to produce such a high-quality pageant system here in Nevada!
