Rachel Ennen-Benassi

A dynamic project manager and product leader passionate about delivering innovative software solutions, with a mobile and web development background, I thrive on creating impactful digital experiences that drive business growth. Growing up in Chicago, I trained at a Russian Ballet School, where I developed the discipline, organization, and time management skills that have shaped my professional journey. Over the past year and a half, I've embraced a nomadic lifestyle, working remotely while exploring destinations like Colorado, California, Florida, and Europe. This experience has broadened my perspective, deepened my commitment to collaboration, and reinforced my belief in continuous learning and growth.

​

Professionally, I specialize in leading teams to build solutions that balance user needs with business objectives. My proudest achievement is managing a team of developers to launch an app with over 50,000 users—on track to exceed 200,000 by the end of 2025. I approach product development with a focus on integrity, accountability, and teamwork, ensuring each project aligns with larger strategic goals. Skilled in tools like Jira, Linear, and Coda, I am a results-driven leader who values innovation and adaptability. I live by the belief that "rejection is redirection, what's meant for you will not pass you," and I bring this optimistic perspective to every challenge I tackle.
