Rachael Simmons

Rachael Simmons (BA 2006, MMC 2011) currently serves as the Senior Director for Communications for Walmart International, the world’s largest omnichannel retailer.

While she may reside in the land of Arkansas Razorbacks in Northwest Arkansas, she is an avid Gamecock fan.

Prior to Walmart, Rachael spent more than a decade at FedEx in various global communications leadership positions. Her experience spans internal communications, digital and social media, investor relations, media strategy, crisis management and strategic planning.

She recently added a new “audience” to her portfolio - three daughters: Catesby (4), Maren (2), and Robinson (1).


Challenge the conventional. Create the exceptional. No Limits.
