Rebekah has collaborated across industries such as fashion, fintech, healthcare, hospitality, and the arts—crafting brand identities and digital experiences defined by thoughtfulness and quiet strength.

Rebekah’s design approach is intuitive and considered, translating complex ideas into clear, captivating visual stories. Guided by curiosity and a refined eye for detail, her work segues seamlessly between clear art direction, brand strategy, brand identity, and web development. Whether partnering with emerging start-ups or established cultural institutions, Rebekah brings a sense of curation, sensitivity, and purpose to every project she undertakes.

It all starts with an idea, let’s get connected.

“When we had a rather unique project, she came up with the branding and artistic direction that was able to capture what we had in mind, with many other creative (out of the box) touchpoints. She is hardworking and very easy to get along with, a joy to work with if you ever get the chance!”

“I was particularly impressed by Rebekah's ability to balance artistic flair with strategic thinking. Her designs not only had visual appeal but also effectively communicated the core message of our NFT initiative. This contributed significantly to the success of our project.”
