 Following graduation, Mrs. Marquez went to Williams High School where she served as the dance and drill team director for ten years. Mrs. Marquez married her high school sweetheart in 2014 and together they have a daughter who is the light of their lives! When she is not doing all things drill team, Mrs. Marquez loves Harry Potter, dogs, and days where she can just relax with her family. 

Rachel Nabors

Assistant Director

I graduated from Baylor University with a Bachelor of Science in Secondary Education, Life Science. I have been dedicated to dance for 19 years, with extensive experience in both studio training and drill team participation. During high school I was an active member of the drill team serving as an officer for two years and captain for my third year.

At the collegiate level, I joined the McLennan Community College dance team, where I was part of the team that won a Jazz National Championship. For the remaining three years, I danced with the Baylor University Songleaders, performing at a variety of sporting events, competing in national competitions, traveling for playoffs and away games, and representing Baylor at numerous appearances.

In addition to assisting with the Golden Girls, I am thrilled to be teaching Food Science. I am excited to continue pursuing my passions for dance and science while contributing to the PESH community.
