An Atlanta-native and long-time New Yorker, Rebecca has lived in Portland for the last several years.

She loves writing about unique homes and has a passion for old buildings, especially the ones that need a little (or a lot of) TLC. She loves designing and building things - from beautiful websites for Redfin’s readers to weaving textiles to renovating her first home herself.
She believes passionately that homeownership is a powerful vehicle for social mobility and that everyone deserves a safe, healthy place to call home. In her spare time you will find her out hiking, exploring the Oregon coast, or curled up in a cozy bar booth with a book or some friends. She has a B.A. from Hampshire College and an M.A. from the CUNY Graduate Center in New York.
