Rebecca is an actor and filmmaker born “off Broadway” in New York City, and she has been performing from an early age. She made her stage debut at ten in Dublin as the title character in Annie, later taking on roles such as Anne in The Diary of Anne Frank, Sandy in Grease, Mayzie in Seussical, and Belle in Disney’s Beauty and the Beast. She grew up primarily in New Zealand and went on to complete a Bachelor of Performing and Screen Arts in Auckland, leading to early guest star roles on Power Rangers and Shortland Street. Shortly after relocating to Los Angeles, she booked her first American feature lead, playing Brit in the thriller Quarries. Rebecca has continued to build a diverse body of work across film and television while also creating her own projects. Her short films Bad Kiwis and Bad Kiwis 2: Kiwi Driver—which she co-wrote, produced, directed, and starred in—have been recognized at festivals throughout the United States, with a third installment underway.
