Rebecca is an internationally recognized boss in the world of coworking. As co-founder and COO of NextSpace, she helped grow a one-unit startup into a nationwide, nine-unit industry leader ranked #1 in the country in 2014. She transferred that experience and skills to Covo, which stands for Collective Voice, and is built on the idea that everyone is welcome regardless of gender, color, lifestyle, origin, or age. Covo is a top-notch coworking space at it’s core, surrounded with an open-to-the-public coffee shop, bar, café, and event venue.
Rebecca is a tireless 7X serial entrepreneur, with a bicoastal graphic design firm, children’s literacy non-profit, design association, and of course coworking, on her list of successful ventures. She credits her entrepreneurial spirit to the belief that if it doesn’t exist and should, we should make it happen. Together. Now. She recognizes and lives both the inequities and privileges entrepreneurs face, and is committed to leveling the playing field and rebuilding the patriarchy. Rebecca graduated magna cum laude from the University of Pennsylvania, and thanks Penn for instilling in her an early love of business, entrepreneurship and adult beverages.
