Rachel Plakon is a lifelong conservative and an appointee of Governor DeSantis. She will stand with our Governor, and is the BOLD Republican leader we need. Today she owns a real estate investment company and brokerage firm, but Rachel's entrepreneurial spirit and servant’s heart was sparked long ago. Throughout her life, Rachel's family was always helping those in need. She never remembers them turning anyone away who asked for help. Her grandfather and father both served in the military.

After graduating in 2001 with honors from Oral Roberts University, where she was President of the College Republicans, Rachel returned to her native Florida to work with the Governor's child mentoring initiative.

Rachel started her first business in 2004 flipping houses. She went from cleaning and fixing toilets and drywall to building successful companies.

In 2020, while local residents struggled to cope with the pandemic and resulting shutdown, Rachel helped deliver life-saving medicine and groceries to our most needy neighbors. She also led a heralded relief effort from Seminole County to her hometown of Bonifay after Hurricane Sally devastated the Panhandle region.

Rachel is the daughter of a U.S. Army National Guard veteran, and both parents are second-generation timber farmers. She has served on the Board of Directors of Business Force, Project Opioid, is a Life Member of the NRA and holds a Corporate MBA.
