Meet Regina
"There is no power for change greater than a community discovering what it cares about."
-Margaret Wheatley
Regina's policy priorities for Pennsylvania are centered around the idea that progress can only be achieved through a shared sense of purpose rather than everyday politics. With this in mind, she is committed to promoting local governance structures that ensure fair representation for all taxpayers and parents, sensible immigration policies that prioritize both Americans and legal immigrants, inclusive voting systems that empower voters, diverse education paths that offer opportunities for all, and seeking common ground on issues that touch on matters of life and death. These policy priorities are designed to foster a more constructive, fair, and inclusive Pennsylvania for all its citizens.
Regina graduated from Villanova University with degrees in computer science and French and German studies. She later earned her Executive MBA from Georgia State University's J. Mack Robinson College of Business. She has held various management positions, domestically and abroad, from business start-ups to Fortune 1000-500 corporations. Her business acumen, emphasis on fiscal and organizational health, and proficiency in language and cultural skills earned her increasing responsibility with multi-million-dollar budgets and organizational performance that consistently exceeded expectations. In addition to her experience, she also cares for disenfranchised communities. She is ready to become a practical and productive member of the Pennsylvania legislature, offering substantial solutions to the community's needs.
On a personal level, Regina has two sons who were born in Russia. She is married to the son of an Italian immigrant and is the daughter of Cuban immigrants. Regina was the first in her family to be born in America but grew up in Puerto Rico, where half of her family still resides. She is proficient in multiple languages and is a cancer survivor. Regina has been living in Chester County for over 20 years.
