Rebekah runs her own venture capital relations company, Right Hand Partners (RHP). She has relationships with over 150 venture capital firms primarily located in the Silicon Valley. Since 2001, she has helped 38 companies raise over $167 million in VC funding. 8 of those companies have since been acquired.

Rebekah founded Right-Hand Partners (RHP) in 2001 to capitalize on her network of VCs that she acquired while fundraising in 1999-2001 for her own startup. RHP is a VC Relations company – a trusted conduit to reach the VC community.

Rebekah has also been extending her vast network of serial entrepreneurs and high quality startup engineers to CXOs to her clients; this has evolved into a formal recruiting service at RHP. RHP’s clients are both domestically and internationally based.

Rebekah was a Founder/CEO of a contracts negotiation software startup from 1999-2001. She was previously the E-Commerce Strategy Manager at Fireman’s Fund Insurance Company and a Regional Manager of Internet Solutions at AT&T. Rebekah earned her BA in Business Administration at Pacific Lutheran University and her post baccalaureate designation with self-proclaimed honors from the School of Hard Knocks.
