Gemma and Rachel have over 30 years of experience between them delivering and supporting community & education based heritage projects, including exhibitions, publications, events, conferences, and marketing campaigns.
Rachel Kacir
After graduating with a degree in History and Politics, Rachel joined the National Trust for Scotland (NTS) where she honed her skills in daily operations and team management across various properties, welcoming visitors from all over the world.
Always eager to learn more, Rachel pursued a Masters in Museum Studies while working for NTS, where she gained even more knowledge in visitor experience, interpretation, and curation.
Aside from her operational expertise, Rachel’s got some serious communication skills too. She’s a master at copywriting, social media management, and press liaison.
When it comes to solving problems, Rachel’s all about being thorough and thoughtful. And, as someone who’s passionate about social history, Rachel’s always looking for new and innovative ways to get communities engaged with Glasgow’s incredible historic built environment.
All in all, Rachel’s a fantastic addition to any team, and her passion for heritage and communication is sure to make a positive impact on any project she’s involved in.
