About

Rhonda launched her professional business, Tracing You, to help adoptees identify and find their birth parents by offering traditional and genetic genealogy assistance as well as mentorship. For eleven years she has worked unknown parentage cases on her own and for volunteer organizations such as Search Angels. Helping families connect became her priority. When she heard about the use of investigational genetic genealogy, Rhonda joined the DNA Doe Project (DDP) to help identify John and Jane Does. Her role as a team leader allows her to help law enforcement name the nameless and give families closure through these identifications. Additionally Rhonda is Executive Director of Human Resources and Education for DDP, where she onboards employees and volunteers to the organization and oversees the education department as well as day to day operations. She is a member of the Association of Professional Genealogists and has previously served as the President of the South Central Chapter.
