Racheal Graham is the Founder and CEO of GreenHouse Creative, a boutique marketing and tech agency specializing in serving service-based businesses.

As a dedicated mom to a neurodiverse middle schooler and recently diagnosed with ADHD herself, Racheal understands the challenges families face when navigating the world of neurodiversity. With her firsthand experience and passion for helping local families find the support they need, both professionally and personally, Racheal is committed to making a positive impact in the lives of neurodiverse individuals and their loved ones through her participation on the board.

Racheal relocated to Santa Rosa Beach via Nashville in 2020 with her husband, two kids, and their beloved black lab, June. In their spare time, you'll often find the Graham Family out on the bay, enjoying moments with her family on their boat while chasing pods of dolphins and enjoying the sunshine.

Missy's passion for teaching children began with her first job in High School as a day camp art director in her hometown of Nashville, Tennessee. Missy attended college at Miami University in Ohio, receiving a BFA in Graphic Design and a BFA in Photography. After working as a graphic designer in Nashville's vibrant music scene for ten years and having children, she returned to school to pursue her Master of Arts in Elementary Education. For the last twelve years, she's thrived as an elementary school teacher in Tennessee and Florida, enriching young minds in public and private school settings. 

Currently, Missy leverages her experience as a curriculum development and implementation consultant for Ohana Solutions. Here, she cultivates engaging, problem-based learning materials and provides professional development opportunities to support educators in fostering a love of learning and exploration in their students. Missy also continues utilizing her graphic design degree as a freelance designer. 

Missy's passion lies in metacognition. She enjoys helping teachers recognize individual student needs and helping students determine how they best learn, communicate, and process emotions – empowering them to become self-aware, confident, lifelong learners and members of their communities. Missy also enjoys volunteering for a non-profit, educational organization in Nicaragua where she provides professional development for their teachers and learning opportunities for their students. When she's not championing education, you'll find her and her husband cheering on their children, both proud Gators at the University of Florida; taking long walks with their dog; and chasing the sunset on the beach. 

With over 2 decades of experience in education, Beverly brings a unique perspective to the table. She began her career as a homeschool facilitator in a small portable classroom in Seaside where she helped parents curate and implement learning materials and individualize lessons to create autonomous, self-directing learners. She transitioned to a Title I public school where she began her career working with students with a variety of learning differences. She became passionate about advocating for policies and practices that help to level the playing field and throughout her career; and has remained committed to the belief that all students deserve access to the support and resources they need to succeed. 

Today, she brings this same commitment to K-12 students at Ohana Institute where she teaches social-emotional learning to ensure the community is inclusive and supportive of all individuals, regardless of their neurodiversity.
