Our Team

Rachel Ryan Gargus

Member Services Coordinator
rachel@oneontabusinessassociation.com
Rachel joined our team in the fall of 2018, made possible by an increased grant from the Alabama Department of Tourism.  She recently retired after 32 years in marketing for Blue Cross/Blue Shield of Alabama.  While there, she worked in corporate communications, edited the company's internal newsletter, and worked the majority of her career in sales and marketing as both a Marketing Service Representative and a Sales Training Coordinator.  Her most recent position with the company was a Provider Network Consultant where she worked with Primary Care Physicians in seven counties in North Alabama.  Rachel is a graduate of Appalachian High School and the University of Alabama, with a Bachelor of Arts in Communications. 

She and husband Mark make their home in Oneonta.  Mark owns MG Services, a local construction company. Their son, Andrew, is a firefighter/EMT with the Birmingham Fire Department and continues to work as needed for the Oneonta Fire Department.  Rachel worships at Lebanon United Methodist Church.  She also serves on the boards of the Oneonta Beautification Board and Blount County Children's Center.  We are very blessed to have Rachel on our team!

I am very excited to have this wonderful opportunity to work with the Oneonta Business Association. They are a very dedicated group of people who work very hard to promote our city. I am very enthusiastic about the many changes and growth of Oneonta and I am eager to serve as a liaison for our businesses and community.
