Rachel Booth
Owner | Director of Business Development
Rachel is the owner and founder of RelyOn Creative, located on Pittsburgh’s Northside. Founded on the premise of extreme reliability, RelyOn Creative delivers high quality, client-focused creative solutions, on time and on budget.
Coming to the world of the web via graphic design, Rachel has a keen eye for what aesthetically 'works' together. While many have this skill, it's her never-ending quest to perfectly balance aesthetics with superior function that make her approach unique. The science of color and proportion with the mechanics of code. Oh, and the ability to manage timelines and budgets like a boss!
Her crazy-ish Type A personality works to her clients' advantage when it comes to web design and development, marketing, branding, graphic design, e-newsletters, and all things along those lines. She loves creating custom solutions to meet specific needs - reliably, affordably and effectively.
A little more about Rachel (in case you care to know)…
Rachel's work since moving to Pittsburgh in 2008 includes volunteering with several Downtown initiatives, such as the Pittsburgh Downtown Partnership’s Resident Advisory Board and the Downtown Neighborhood Association. She's written several personal and professional pieces for Pop City Media. When her son was little, she conducted stroller tours of Downtown Pittsburgh under the name “Urban Baby Tours.” She co-founded the local popular website LivingPittsburgh.com. She was honored in 2011 as a PUMP/Pittsburgh Magazine 40 Under 40 winner, which recognizes individuals making a positive impact on the Pittsburgh region. She has served as a board member of the East Allegheny Community Council, and was honored as Deutschtown’s Neighbor of the Year in 2012.
Rachel is beyond proud to call Pittsburgh home!
