Rebekah Enoch- Museum Administrator

Rebekah is an Atlanta native who traveled the world only to find herself back where she started. She joined the Nest in 2024 and since then she's taken to working at the Nest like B'rer Rabbit in the briar patch! Aside from the stories, she especially loves the hands-on connection to the people, community and history she finds working at the Nest.

She attended Kennesaw State University and received her Bachelor’s degree in History and Master’s in Art and Design. Her passion for history and museums led her to working in both the Wren’s Nest and Etowah Indian Mounds Historic site. She loves sharing the local history of Georgia and interacting with people of all ages when they visit the Wren’s Nest.
