Born and raised in Palmdale, California, Raquel is a proud native of Sunny Southern California. Raquel earned her Bachelor’s degree in Communication Studies in 2018 from Long Beach State. There she worked as a marketing assistant for the Long Beach State Athletics program, primarily creating marketing collateral for the Long Beach State Dirtbags, where she found her love for collegiate and minor league baseball. In 2020, Raquel earned her Master’s degree in Sport Management at LBSU. Before making the leap to Oklahoma, she worked in Anaheim and Santa Ana coordinating social media for an immigration Law Firm, a non-profit swimming organization in Long Beach, and an e-commerce clothing store.

Raquel moved to Oklahoma in hopes of furthering her career in sports. Raquel can be found attending a multitude of sports events in her free time. Besides the OKC Dodgers, Raquel’s favorite teams to root for are the LA Dodgers (full-circle moment), LA Lakers, and the LA Rams… a proud LA-native!

Finance & Administration

John MacDonald

Vice President, Accounting & Finance

John MacDonald comes to the OKC Dodgers from the oil and gas industry. After graduating from Oklahoma State, John spent the next 39 years in the DFW area and in Houston holding various positions in Finance, including serving as an interim CFO for two separate privately-held oil & gas firms in Houston and in Ft. Worth. During that time, he also received his MBA from Southern Methodist University.

John and his wife, Debbie, were introduced to minor league baseball during the time that the Sugar Land Skeeters came into being near their home outside of Houston. As new empty-nesters they enjoyed hosting several Skeeter players and their families in their home over several seasons.

John and Debbie have been married for over 40 years and are enjoying an active life here in OKC - Broadway OKC, The Lyric Theater, and Shakespeare in the Park - which are just excuses to try all of the new great restaurants popping up all over the city. They are avid sports fans, particularly college football after both of their sons played football in college - naturally they are season ticket holders for their alma mater, the OSU Cowboys. To relax they enjoy spending quiet mornings on their front porch and walking with their miniature cocker doodle, Riley.
