Rebecca Morris Hoeft is known for being a global, innovative, brand builder. Recognized by the likes of Fast Company, Cannes Film Festival and others, Becca is known for growing brands from financial services to technology to fashion and film. During the pandemic she joined forces with four other women from her alma mater and started a four year cohort program at Bethel University focused on growing young women and their leadership skills. Most recently she left her Chief Brand Officer role at a well-known CDFI and B Corp, Sunrise Banks. She has since started the Morris Hoeft Group, a full-service PR and Marketing firm focused on growing purpose driven brands.
