Kate’s role at CeaseFirePA is to build power in Bucks County and Northeast Philadelphia by working with local volunteers and elected officials to promote stronger gun safety laws. Growing up and going to school in the height of the increase in mass shootings in the U.S. has made her a fierce advocate for ending gun violence throughout Pennsylvania and the nation.

Kate is a native of Bucks County and a Lehigh University graduate with a background in community and youth organizing. She got her start in advocacy by leading organizing efforts on her campus for both candidates and issues, including gun safety laws. She previously served as President of the PA College Democrats, working to solve the pressing societal issues that young people in PA are facing, and was a full-time field organizer in Bucks County during the 2024 election cycle. Kate is excited to bring her strong ties to the region and her passion for organizing to CeaseFirePA and continue the fight to end gun violence in PA.

Kate is an avid traveler and Swiftie, and she loves rooting on the Phillies and Eagles.
