Rachel Gibson is a fictional character played by Rachel Nichols in the final season of the spy-fi television series Alias. Introduced at the start of the fifth season of Alias, Rachel Gibson''s life parallels Sydney Bristow in many ways. A computer genius, she was recruited by Gordon Dean to work for what she thought was a black ops branch of the CIA. In reality, "The Shed" was Dean''s own criminal organization. Like with SD-6, all employees but a central handful were told only the cover story- they were an off-book CIA division.
