Before founding EatPakd, Rebecca worked at Deloitte Consulting in its Strategy & Operations practice where she focused on Mergers & Acquisition and Customer Experience projects.

Working with the Goldman Sachs and USAID, Rebecca designed and executed business education and advisory programs that impacted more than 1,500 female entrepreneurs.
