Our Founder

Rhea Jacobs

Rhea Jacobs is an Entrepreneur, Model, Digital Creator, and TED Speaker based in Dubai, whose work seamlessly blends creativity, advocacy, and purpose.

A BA Fashion Honors graduate, Rhea’s career began when she was scouted as a Global Beauty Ambassador for Marc Jacobs Beauty. Since then, her journey has taken her to partner with some of the world’s most celebrated brands and publications, including Vogue, Harper’s Bazaar, Marie Claire, Elle, Bloomingdale’s, Tiffany & Co., Mugler, Swarovski, Chopard, and many more.

Her impact within the region has been widely recognized. Rhea was honored with the Rising Star Award by Cosmopolitan Middle East, listed among Emirates Woman’s Top 10 Creatives to Follow in the Middle East, nominated for Grazia’s Digital Star of the Year, and named among the Top 100 Most Influential Asians in the Middle East for two consecutive years.

Beyond her creative work, Rhea has consistently used her voice and platform to champion meaningful conversations around diversity, inclusivity, and individuality. She has spoken on renowned panels and platforms, advocating for the importance of embracing authenticity in every facet of life.

In 2024, Rhea founded Rhé, her namesake wellness brand, born from her own personal experience of burnout and the healing journey that followed. Derived from the phrase “Ray of Light,” Rhé was created to offer a safe, empowering space for today’s busy individual. Through this platform, Rhea’s mission is to make self-care a genderless, ageless, and essential household practice, offering a realistic, simplified, and accessible approach to wellness for all.

Rhea believes that true success lies not just in what we achieve, but in how we care for ourselves and uplift those around us. Rhé is an extension of that belief, a community, a resource, and a gentle reminder to pause, reflect, and reconnect.
