Meet Two of Our Newest Team Members


Kat Guerrero has joined our team as the new Associate Planner whose first day was Monday, April 6. Kat is a member of the Purchasing team reporting and will plan the Children’s, Desktop, and Leisure categories.

Prior to joining UncommonGoods, Kat was an Assistant Buyer at Bloomingdale's.com in Men’s Accessories, Men’s Collection, and Young World. She loves working with numbers and logistics, and studied Operations Research at Columbia University.

Kat’s Uncommon Fact? She was on a nationally ranked soccer team in High School, but now can’t run a mile.

Rebekah Krikke is our new Assistant Production Manager who started with us last month.  Rebekah is a member of the Product Development team. In her new role, Rebekah will work with new and existing manufacturers in development and production, helping us to keep our new product pipeline running smoothly and growth-oriented.

Rebekah previously worked as Production Manager at a fair trade jewelry company that partners with artisans in Ecuador and Vietnam.  Prior to that, she worked as a Project Manager at an organization that consults nonprofits on how to improve program effectiveness.  Rebekah loves cooking, exploring the city’s many neighborhoods, and dabbling in random hobbies.

Rebekah’s Uncommon Fact? She won a doughnut eating contest a few years back (which is even more impressive considering she doesn’t like doughnuts or really anything too sweet).
