From her education at the Savannah College of Art and Design and the Georgia Institute of Technology, Rebecca has continuously explored architecture's relationship to experiences, hospitality, and the built environment.
Rebecca has over 14 years of professional architectural experience. Her project scope ranges from high-end residential towers with historical characteristics to duplexes with sustainable considerations. Her passion for architecture has translated into successful models, elevations and plans, presentations, interiors, built space, and client relationships.
Most recently, she is a Director at Brand Bureau, a branding, strategy, & design agency rooted in bringing hospitality to everyday places through the creation of remarkable experiences. As a Project Director of Interior Architecture & Design, she was hired to help grow the design development side of the studio & help navigate the complexities of bringing concepts to life. Her critical project responsibilities include not only ensuring the health of the projects, but also the health of the studio through staffing, hiring, standards & proposals. Her project typologies include Residential Developments, Offices, Hotels, Student Housing, and even Cruise Ships.
Previously, Rebecca worked at Stephen B. Jacobs Group as Project Architect and Manager. Her project typologies focused on New Construction Residential Towers for Developers as well as Hotel Renovations.
