RACHAEL OETKEN

Rachael joined Stone Group Architects in September 2023 as an Executive Assistant. She brings a background in people-focused work, having earned her Bachelor’s degree in Sociology and Criminal Justice from South Dakota State University.

Driven by a strong attention to detail and a genuine passion for supporting others, Rachael plays an integral role in keeping operations running smoothly behind the scenes. Whether coordinating schedules or lending a helping hand across teams, she takes pride in contributing to an environment where collaboration thrives.

Outside of work, Rachael is happiest outdoors whether it’s hiking, soaking up the sun, or exploring with her pitty by her side. She currently lives with her grandma and loves nothing more than spending time with her nephews. “Hanging out with my nephews and my dog is my happy place,” she says. A self-proclaimed chocolate chip cookie connoisseur, Rachael balances her sweet tooth with plenty of time spent in nature.

“The wolf you feed is the wolf who wins.”
