Leadership That Shows Up and Listens

Putting our community first means making decisions that reflect the real lives of the people who live here—not politics as usual in Harrisburg. As a working mom and community advocate in the Lehigh Valley, I’ve spent years listening to neighbors who are doing everything right but still struggling with rising costs, child care challenges, access to health care, and the uncertainty of finding stable, good-paying local jobs. These aren’t abstract issues—they’re everyday realities for families across our district. I’m running because I believe our community deserves leadership that shows up, listens, and works alongside residents to solve problems. We need stronger support for our schools, more affordable housing options, accessible and reliable health care, and policies that help working families get ahead instead of fall behind.

Putting Working Families First

Everyday Affordability

Families in the Lehigh Valley are struggling under rising inflation, high costs for everyday items like groceries, and increasing rates for utilities. Rachel will work to lower the cost of groceries and household essentials to relieve the burden on working families.

Affordable Housing

Housing shouldn’t be unattainable for the average person in the Lehigh Valley, but as supply dwindles and prices keep rising, homeownership is becoming out of reach for many. Rachel will support responsibly building more truly affordable housing in the region to bring down costs and make homeownership a reality again.

Affordable Healthcare

The average cost of healthcare, be it preventative, emergency, or end-of-life care, has gotten out of control. Rachel will find solutions that increase benefits, bring down premiums, and free Pennsylvanians from crippling medical debt.

Protecting Farmland and Green Space

The Lehigh Valley has become a hotspot for warehouse and data center proposals, but unchecked development is threatening the nature, farmland, and open space that makes this region feel like home. Rachel will push back on the spread of data centers and big box warehouses to make sure growth is responsible and accountable to the community.

Strong Public Schools

Public education is essential to helping our children succeed in life, but it is struggling to meet their needs because of a lack of funding. Rachel will support driving more state funding into public schools to make sure all kids, teachers, and parents are given the resources they need without senseless property tax increases.

Community Safety

Our first responders put their health and lives on the line to keep us safe, and they deserve more support. Rachel will secure grants, funding, and resources for first responders to help them continue doing good work in our communities.

A Lehigh Valley Story

Rachel comes from a military family — her father served 20 years in the U.S. Army and her mother served in the U.S. Air Force. After her father's retirement, the family settled in Bath, Pennsylvania, where Rachel watched local leaders help her family through a difficult stretch. That experience shaped her lifelong commitment to public service.

She built an HR career at companies including Amazon and Boston Beer, helping veterans, women, and people from nontraditional backgrounds find meaningful work. Today Rachel lives in Alburtis with her husband and two children.
