Rachel is currently conducting a wetland delineation in the Pinelands for the Washington Turnpike Bridge (Godfrey Bridge) over Wading River in Long Island, NY. The project area is located within the West Branch Wading River Macrosite, a Natural Heritage Priority Site. This area/site contains more than four square miles of pitch pine lowland forest and lesser acreages of pine barren hardwood swamps and cedar swamps. “Environmentally, it is a super cool area with lots of wildlife. During the project that proposes a bridge replacement, four freshwater wetlands were identified and delineated.”
When asked what she thinks makes working at McCormick Taylor unique, Rachel noted the people-centric and collaborative culture of the company. “McCormick Taylor stands by their people and affords them opportunities to learn, grow, and lead. Employees are genuinely interested in understanding the perspective or approach you bring to a project. Everyone is open to new ideas and exploring new ways to make processes more efficient.”
When Rachel is not at work, you can find her planning events for her friends and family, spending time outside, or creating one of her infamous “to-do” lists.
