I have known Racheal for over a decade as a course mate at the university as well as the Lagos Campus of the Nigerian Law School. In these years as colleagues, I have worked with her on different projects and assignments. She is organized, thorough, analytical and open to new leanings. Always seeks better ways to get things done. Even under pressure, she possesses an unexplainable calmness that’s infectious.
