About Me

Hello, I’m Rebecca Thorman and here’s the latest:

After living in the Midwest my entire life (Illinois, then Wisconsin), I just moved to Washington, DC. My job at the start-up company Alice.com graciously let me keep my position so I work remotely spreading the joy of receiving toilet paper and toothpaste in the mail. I manage PR and Community for the company. My boyfriend Ryan is the co-founder and COO of the start-up company BrazenCareerist.com.

My background is in design, and starting my blog is the best career and life move I’ve ever made. Blogging is how I met Ryan (we’re dorky like that), and Modite has been featured in several media outlets including the New York Times and the Wall Street Journal.
