About Me

Hello, I’m Mary Rachel!  After working for the better part of the last decade in marketing at global medical device companies, I decided it was time to start my own business, Ethics in Action (formerly Taylor Moon Consulting), focused on leveraging my wide-ranging experience in the health care business and ethics worlds along with my passion for personal development, medical education, and ethical product marketing.

When I’m not leading training workshops, I can be found at home in Atlanta, GA watching ER reruns or walking with my rescue dogs, Scout & Daphne.
