Rebecca had an active childhood growing up in Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania. Destined for the stage from early on, Rebecca started taking dance lessons at the age of three, and had moved to California at the age of nine.  By the time Rebecca had turned sixteen, she was working at Disneyland performing as Disney princesses in parades and shows and was also actively involved in modeling. Rebecca quit Disney at the age of twenty to further her modeling and acting careers after appearing in a documentary about the famed ocean liner Titanic.

Rebecca has appeared in various commercials and TV shows. Her most recent TV campaign was as the "Barbasol Girl" in a hockey-themed shaving cream commercial.  She was also the spokesmodel for Killian's Irish Red Beer campaign for summer 2003.  She has made special appearances in such films as What Woman Want, Do It For Uncle Manny, Baseketball, and Town and Country; and her TV appearances include co-starring roles on The Man Show, ABC's Odd Man Out, and Thunderdome.

She loves to spend her free time relaxing with a good book, travelling, and being with her dog.
