ROKK Solutions Welcomes Rachael Payton as a Senior Account Executive
Washington, D.C. – ROKK Solutions, a bipartisan public affairs firm at the nexus of policy and politics, today welcomed Rachael Payton as a Senior Account Executive.
Payton comes from BCW Global, where she was a part of the 2020 Census integrated communications campaign. In that capacity, she worked with national partners to emphasize the importance of the decennial census and encourage U.S. residents to respond. Prior to working with BCW Global, Rachael has created and implemented public relations strategies for companies in various industries including technology, finance, and mental health.
“With a background in public relations and a passion for philanthropy, Rachael’s unique perspective will be a strong complement to the ROKK team,” said ROKK Solutions partner Rodell Mollineau.
Payton is also the founder of BeGreatDC, a local nonprofit dedicated to health and wellness, youth education and community engagement in Washington, D.C. Under her leadership in 2020, BeGreatDC responded to the pandemic by putting nearly $10,000 worth of resources back into the community to support COVID-19 relief efforts and to provide students with technology for virtual learning. Before founding BeGreatDC in 2017, her philanthropic leadership efforts began as the Director of Communications for the Northern Virginia Urban League Young Professionals Network.
Payton earned her Bachelor of Science in Communication from Old Dominion University. Additionally, she is a 2013 alumna of the Washington Media Institute where she developed a mature understanding of media relations while studying the intersection of communications, politics, and journalism.
“We are thrilled to have Rachael join our growing team dedicated to providing the best communications practices on behalf of our clients,” said partner Ron Bonjean ROKK has undertaken a strategic expansion over the past 24 months, resulting in double digit growth and a strengthening of capabilities across its offerings, including paid advertising, campaign management, cybersecurity communications, and social impact communications.
