Who We Are: Rachelle Siskin

Program Logistics Manager

Rachelle SiskinI was born and raised in the Bay Area and will probably never leave this beautiful place. I earned a Bachelor’s degree from the University of the Pacific where I studied Business with an emphasis on Marketing. I’ve worked in small business settings over the years, and I appreciate the many attributes of that type of environment. I enjoy working at the Anita Borg Institute because in many ways we are a small family. We are made up of several personalities and each person brings a different strength and character to the organization. Please contact me if you have any questions about the Women of Vision Awards Banquet or Grace Hopper Celebration.
