As the Delaware County Register of Wills and Clerk of Orphans' Court, Rachel is a county-wide, elected judicial officer who regularly rules on legal petitions and presides over hearings at the Delaware County Courthouse and Government Center. She swears in witnesses, admits and excludes evidence, evaluates witness testimony, and has written many Opinions and Orders affecting tens of millions dollars and making a difference in the lives of Delaware County residents. She is the first Delaware County Register to write an Opinion and Order after every hearing, detailing the applicable standard of law and explaining how she weighed the evidence. To date, she has never been reversed on appeal. This has been an important step forward for judicial transparency in Delaware County. Rachel hopes to bring her commitment to serving the public and promoting judicial transparency to the Court of Common Pleas.

As an elected official who has run and won, Rachel knows what it takes to run a winning campaign. Despite the fact that she was the only first-time candidate on the 2021 democratic slate, she won her race by over 11,000 votes, earning her the distinction of being the highest vote-getter of any countywide candidate on the democratic ticket.

Rachel appreciates what it means to dedicate herself to public service. As the Register, Rachel has brought services to residents online and in person across Delaware County. In addition to her service as the Register, Rachel has a history of leadership and community service throughout Delaware County. She is a Director of the Delaware County Bar Association and the current Chair of the Women in the Law Section of the Delaware County Bar Association.

She is the first-ever female Chair of the Delaware County Economic Development Oversight Board, which was instrumental in helping small and local businesses during the pandemic by recommending funding for Delco Strong grants.

She is also involved with the Guy G. deFuria American Inn of Court and the League of Women Voters of Central Delaware County, among other organizations, and has served as a homeroom mom in her children's classrooms.

Rachel would bring over a decade of legal and trial experience to the Delaware County Court of Common Pleas. In addition to her years of work as the Register—where she is currently presiding over the trials and deciding the cases—as a lawyer, she is experienced in both federal and state trial courts as well as both Pennsylvania and out-of-state trial courts. As a law clerk on the U.S. District Court as well as the Delaware County Court of Common Pleas, Rachel focused exclusively on trials while working under the expert guidance of actual sitting judges. As a litigator at one of the most respected law firms in the United States, Rachel's main purpose was not only to appear in court, but also to prepare cases for trial by taking on lead discovery responsibilities on cases involving potentially billions of dollars in liability and writing various motions, including motions to compel, dispositive motions, and motions in limine. She has worked directly with a nationally-renowned jury consultant on strategies associated with jury selection and voir dire. Her considerable and respected work in developing expert witnesses for trial led to her being asked to co-author textbook chapters on expert witnesses for other lawyers to reference in LexisNexis's Pennsylvania Civil Pretrial and Trial Practice Guides.
