Originally from St. Louis, Rebecca holds a BA from Washington University and an M.Ed. from Harvard University. In her role, she works closely with alumni, families, and supporters to strengthen the culture of philanthropy that helps sustain and expand opportunities for O’Dowd students.

Rebecca is passionate about building strong institutions that form young people not only academically, but also in character and purpose. She believes what makes O’Dowd special is the deep sense of belonging across the community—where students are known and challenged, educators see their work as a vocation, and alumni remain connected long after graduation.

Outside of work, Rebecca enjoys spending time outdoors in the Bay Area, reading, and staying connected with friends and family.
