A Little Bit about Rebecca's Professional Experience


At one time a college-level lacrosse referee and field hockey umpire, Rebecca understands the value of rules. Playing by the rules means playing fair. Everyone is treated equally, and when someone steps out of bounds, they are held accountable.

As an athletic coach, Rebecca knows how to build teams. She knows how to find and nurture talent, and to put the right people in the right positions. Rebecca is particularly proud of her work as the varsity coach for the Falmouth High School girls lacrosse team. Under her leadership, the team went to the state playoffs for the first time – a feat that was not repeated again until a decade after she had left.

Good salesmen use their communication and listening skills to bring parties together, find common ground, build relationships, and get things done – the kind of skills a selectman should have. Employed in the real estate business since 2001, Rebecca proved that she has these skills by winning several sales awards when she was an agent with the RE/Max Classic real estate office.

When Rebecca opened her own real estate office, Putnam Real Estate, in 2006, she was – and still is – the youngest minority owner/broker in Falmouth. A member of the Chamber of Commerce, Rebecca knows the ups and downs of owning a small business. She knows the value of hard work, what it's like to struggle in a down economy, and to balance the books and make ends meet. Indeed, when other real estate offices in Falmouth merged or closed during the recent recession, Rebecca maintained her independence.
