Every month, our enthusiastic team of editors, writers, designers, and advertising specialists work behind the scenes to create each issue of GreeneScene Community Magazine. This passionate team is dedicated to creating a fascinating, optimistic, and relevant magazine that our readers love. Over the next year, we’ll be introducing you to our team, member by member, so that you can get to know the devoted crew that brings you the GreeneScene.
This month, we’d like to introduce you to one of our contributors, Rochelle McCracken. Rochelle was born in Waynesburg, PA and spent most of her time on her grandparent’s farm growing up. She has always had a love of animals and the farm environment was her favorite place.
After graduating high school, she went on to receive her degree in biology and spent several years working at various companies on the east coast. Much of her work required writing but technical in nature. However, over the years she realized she enjoyed the arts and became involved with the local playhouse where she was living and expanded her artistic side.
Rochelle soon found herself learning to play the violin and writing on occasion. Her professional life had changed, and she started working with business partners in the agricultural field. When her father died, she moved back home to take over care of his farm and a family farm where she raises cattle and has many other animals.
Being back in the area and needing work, Rochelle answered an ad placed by DR looking for writers and was delighted when Shelly gave her her first assignment.
