Senior Director of Marketing, Fairlife

Val Zanchettin

"I joined the board because Rainbows made a meaningful difference in my family’s life during a challenging time, and I want to help other children and parents to receive the same support. I’m excited to contribute to growing awareness of Rainbows’ mission and expanding its impact so even more families can benefit from this incredible community."

By day, Val works as a Senior Director of Marketing at fairlife, a dairy beverage brand that’s part of The Coca-Cola Company, where she focuses on brand strategy, new product innovation and corporate social responsibility. Her background includes 20 years in the food and beverage industry and she previously worked at Sara Lee Corporation, Johnsonville Sausage and Edelman Public Relations.

Val brings empathy, experience, and enthusiasm to the board, and is especially passionate about the Rainbows mission because she experienced firsthand how Rainbows helped her own kids as they navigated grief from divorce.

When Val isn’t working or attending board meetings, you can find her volunteering in her community, hiking, or traveling.

One fun fact about Val: Her goal is to visit all the National Parks (she’s currently been to 25 out of 63).
