Rachel Pizzolato's achievements span science, pageantry, and entertainment at a remarkably young age. She is one of the few people to have a minor planet named after her by MIT while still in middle school. Her science fair victories include five Grand Awards at the Greater New Orleans Science and Engineering Fair, and she earned a Top 300 spot in the prestigious Regeneron Science Talent Search. In pageantry, she won three titles in 2018. Her role as co-host of MythBusters Jr. made her a visible role model for girls in STEM. She continues to break barriers as a model, actress, and Olympic-hopeful trampolinist.
