About Rachael Green

I am a freelance writer specializing in finance, small business, and travel. I've lived and traveled all across Europe but I'm currently based in Brooklyn where I'm working on my first collection of short stories and continuing my culinary quest for the perfect barbecue sauce recipe.
The cause I support is NLADA which offers training, resources, and funding opportunities to public defenders and legal aid organizations across the U.S. that provide free legal support to vulnerable and low-income communities. They also advocate for policies that address the many injustices in our justice system.
