Meet Rebekah James

“I chose a new career in residential real estate because working with people to find the home of their dreams or to achieve their objectives when selling their home is extremely rewarding, personally,” Rebekah says.

 

Rebekah’s father built a highly successful consulting business from the ground up. She learned from her father’s example that success comes from working hard, honestly, and in the best interest of developing trusted long-term relationships.

 

These values served her very well in her early career as a teacher and in the past eight years, building a successful business working from home. These endeavors added competencies in scheduling, working efficiently amid distractions, and working late to get things done. She learned that “reaching outside of your comfort zone to help those around you builds character and strength, and you learn resilience—no matter what life throws at you.”

 

Rebekah’s past membership commitments include The Junior League of Bryan-College Station, The Junior League of Houston, and Women of Memorial Nottingham Women’s Club, where she served on the board as president. She serves currently on the Youth Ministry Council at her church and on the PTA with Wilchester Elementary School and Memorial Middle School.

 

A native Houstonian, Rebekah attended Stratford High School and graduated from Texas A&M University with a BS in interdisciplinary studies. She regularly made the dean’s list, belonged to a sorority, and volunteered with a local program to help elementary school students improve their reading.

 

Rebekah enjoys spending time with family, shopping, exercising, and “a good spa day!” when not working. Her happy place is a white-sand, blue-water beach. A person of strong religious faith, she has a “glass half-full” outlook on life and always strives to find the positive in any situation. Rebekah is married, the mother of four boys, and a west Houston resident for 30 years.
