Early years

Rachelle is the daughter of a woman who was a famous hair dresser for kids. Rachelle’s mother had a giving heart when it came to children. She always wanted to help the less fortunate children who did not have the same chances and opportunities as other children. Rachelle’s mother extended the same love that she gave to Rachelle to other children as if they were her own kids. Rachelle’s mother became the founder of a charitable organization called Wigs 4 Kids. The company provides wigs for children who suffer from a condition called Carcinomas and other hair loss conditions. Rachelle’s mother understood how hard and embarrassing it could be for children to grow up bald among their peers. She knew that there would be a lot of nasty teasing and hurt feelings for the children. She wanted to ease their pain by providing a way to cover up their condition. Even though it wasn’t real hair, it was at least a shield from bullying and a source of comfort for the children.

In 1989, Rachelle graduated from Lake Shore High School. The school was located in Rachelle’s birthplace. Rachelle did not move around much in her early years. Staying in one location allowed her to develop roots and friendships for the rest of her life. She was able to develop a strong personality because of the positive spirit that her mom always had around the house.

Rachelle attended Wayne State University with a major in Journalism. Her major choice would not be directly related to her future career but it would give her a preview into the world of production. Instead of writing about subjects like her major intended, she would instead be the creator and producer.

Marital life

Rachelle Wilkos is a happily married woman. She lives with her big brute husband Steve and her two adorable children. Rachelle feels extremely safe in the arms of Steve because he has seen it all. There is nothing in the world that Steve would not be able to protect Rachelle from. It makes sense that Rachelle would end up with a man like Steve because of the way her mother raised her. Her mother was a nurturer and her husband is a protector.

They have a daughter named Ruby and a son named Jack. The loving and happy family live a comfortable life in Connecticut.

Career

Rachelle started her entertainment career as an intern in 1994. Her start was on a local morning show called Company. It was a good experience for Rachelle to get used to how people did things behind the scenes in the television industry. She did well enough to be promoted to associate producer.
