REBEKAH CARROLL, IOM

Owner & President 

​

Prior to founding STATEMENTS, Rebekah served for 10 years as President & CEO of the Watkins Glen Area Chamber of Commerce, where she worked closely with businesses throughout Watkins Glen, Schuyler County, and the greater Finger Lakes region. That experience furthered her passion for supporting businesses of all sizes and helping owners build stronger, more sustainable organizations. 

​

In addition to leading STATEMENTS, Rebekah provides consulting and contract CFO services and teaches at the collegiate level, with a focus on leadership, budgeting, and financial excellence.

​

Rebekah began her career in the accounting office of Schuyler Hospital (a big-hearted hospital located in in the small village of Montour Falls, NY), where she worked for seven years. In 2005, when she resigned from the hospital to stay home with her young children, she was functioning in the capacity of Assistant Director of Human Resources and Junior Accountant. For the next three years, Rebekah was the sole-proprietor of two different businesses: a registered group daycare (REBEKAH’S PLACE DAYCARE) and a consulting business. While wearing her “consultant” hat, she contracted with Corning’s Gaffer District (Corning, NY) as its Interim Director of Operations, performed all billing services for two small medical offices, performed sales tax recovery projects for local non-profit organizations, and prepared small business and personal income tax returns. 

Rebekah is proud to say that she has lived in the area since she was 11. She currently lives in Montour Falls with her husband, Rick, and their daughter Ruby while her oldest children (Emily, Ryanna, Erin, Ali, Alicia, and Adam) are out of the home pursuing their dreams.  She earned her Associate’s Degree in Business Administration and Accounting from Corning Community College in 2009. She completed Leadership Schuyler in 2010 and graduated from Chamber Institute with a focus on Organizational Management in 2015.
