Rebekah has served BGCSWVA in multiple roles throughout her 11-year tenure. Beginning her career as a Youth Development Staff (YDS) in 2011, she most recently served as Senior Director of Programming and held the role of Interim Chief Executive Officer. Throughout her time with BGCSWVA, Rebekah has engaged as a passionate advocate for their mission and collaborator with school divisions and community partners, always keeping the interests of Club members front and center.
