About Rebecca
Hello! My name is Rebecca and I am a designer, creative strategist and small business advocate living in Boston, Massachusetts. I am a cum laude graduate of Harvard University where I studied business, psychology and digital media and am deeply passionate about the intersection of all three. My professional experience in design, technology and retail management and operations has given me valuable insights into consumer behavior, CX strategy, and UX design with a deep intuitive understanding of client relations and project management. I am a doer who prospers in creative collaborative environments and is energized by big visions and ideas.
Advanced in Adobe Creative Suite, I love pushing the creative boundaries of my clients, myself, and engineering teams to execute brilliant, distinct works. I have had the pleasure to work with a variety of clients including financial and cultural institutions, philanthropic organizations, tech startups, fashion and retail, and private clients. My passion for design and creative problem-solving drives my work ethic. As someone who thrives under pressure, I am always looking to grow and take on new projects, especially ones that require complex thinking and creative strategy.
Rebecca's Websites
Each website and project below was conceptualized, designed and developed by myself and focuses on one of my many passions and interests.
Explore somewhere new, find what you love, support local shop owners, and help our communities thrive.
MainStroll is an immersive shopping aggregator and informational site that helps consumers find products, services, and attractions from their small, Main Street businesses nationwide.
MainStroll began as a small business initiative after witnessing the devastating economic impact the COVID-19 pandemic had on my community which relies heavily on tourism and foot traffic. I firmly believe our Main Streets are the foundation of a thriving community and strong local economy. My passion for small business, creative customer strategy and design fueled this social technology initiative.

Rebecca's Design Work
As early as six years old I found my passion for design through a genuine curiosity and appreciation for how things were presented and arranged. This curiosity led me to frequently question my behavior as a consumer (my earliest memories of this are ice cream stands, grocery store candy aisles and toys in cereal boxes), the objective from the company's perspective, how I interacted with their product, and naturally, if I had the opportunity to redesign it, what I would change.
My professional career began at 18 as an in-house print designer on Beacon Hill. I transitioned to freelance during my years in Europe as a college student, finding a niche in luxury 3D and interactive print invitations for private clients. In addition to print design, I am also skilled in digital design and photo restorations.
Strategy & Research
My professional experience and degree in business has fueled multiple case studies, management, marketing and creative strategy projects I have had the pleasure to work on.
