Founder - Rachel Bays

Bridging Technical Expertise and Creative Storytelling

While interning as a mechanical engineer at Siemens Energy—and making music videos on the side—Rachel was tapped to create a safety video for the company. Two years later, she officially launched Illuminate Video with Siemens as her first client. With over a decade of experience fusing precise technical communication and compelling storytelling, Rachel’s hands-on approach has guided Illuminate Video into a trusted name in video production and digital media.

She has served on the Executive Leadership Team of the NASA Johnson Space Center Small Business Council and on the Marketing Committee of the Greater Houston Women’s Chamber of Commerce. Rachel was also recognized in the The Rocks Off 200 by the Houston Press, which spotlights the city’s most compelling figures in music and the arts.
