“Rebecca gets things done. She was still in her twenties when she walked into my office with no money saying she wanted to make a film featuring the survivors of Hiroshima. I thought, “Right, lots of people want to make films. Not many do.” But she did it! And you can watch it here: https://www.peacinstitute.org/thatday
Equally astounding was her success taking “Hiroshima” into high schools in New Jersey. She developed an excellent curriculum on empathy, using survivor testimony to help students understand what empathy feels like. You can see that curriculum here: https://education.peacinstitute.org/
I have basked in glory reflected from Rebecca at the UN, where she has organized and run many a program for students. What especially impresses the UN crowd are the students she recruits into these programs – students who normally wouldn’t think of visiting the UN, much less taking part in conferences and lobbying diplomats. Her work has earned her a place at the table when NGOs start planning UN events. Her organizing skills have taken her to New Zealand, Korea, Japan, and even Minneapolis, where her stellar performances invariably lead to the next task.
Whether you’re starting a new company, a new program, or a new campaign, start by giving Rebecca a call. Your project will be better and do better if you can get her on your team.”
