Rachel Wright, a 2007 Development Sociology graduate from Cornell’s College of Agriculture and Life Sciences, served as president of the Chorus and musical director of After Eight. She helped revive After Eight in the mid-2000s, arranging lasting repertoire like Life is a Highway. After graduating, Rachel joined Teach For America and went on to become a high school math teacher. She now serves as Upper School Director at a pre-K–12 independent school and holds a doctorate in organizational leadership—drawing directly on the skills she developed through leading the Chorus.
