Welcome to the website of the Lower Providence Republican Committee!
The LPRC is the official municipal organization for the Republican Party in LP. Our job is simple — to help elect and support Republicans to serve at all levels of local government; from Methacton School Board and the Lower Providence Board of Supervisors, to the PA House and Senate.
The committee is made up of 20 of your neighbors, men and woman from diverse background. We knock on doors, raise funds and work to get out the vote. We volunteer our time because we believe in our country, our commonwealth and our community. We believe that Lower Providence continues to be a great place to live, work and worship, and we believe that Republican values will help ensure that it remains that way. Those values are hard work, smaller government, lower taxes, individual freedoms, and personal responsibility.

Shawn is a successful real estate entrepreneur, a USMC Operation Iraqi Freedom combat veteran and a former global investment banker. Shawn holds a BA in Accounting and Finance from the University of Durham, John Snow College, UK, where he graduated with honors. If elected as Lower Providence’s Constable, Shawn plans to fully perform the role completing the additional law enforcement certifications under Act 49, not just performing the semiannual position of polling place security. Shawn will heavily rely on his security background and experience, both acquired in and out of the military, to successfully achieve this goal. Shawn started his career as a U.S. Infantry Marine. Shortly thereafter he went to security forces school and then served the country on a Presidential Protection Detail attached to Camp David and later deployed to Al Anbar, Iraq with the 2nd Intelligence Battalion. After returning home and being honorably discharged, Shawn joined Inter-Con Security Systems, Inc. and was assigned to the U.S. Department of State. Shortly after joining, Shawn deployed on a diplomatic mission attached to the security team at the U.S. Embassy in Beijing, China. After returning home from his second deployment, Shawn led the Special Operations team for Inter-con at the State Department in Washington, D.C. Here Shawn was responsible for the safety of Foreign Heads of State and their staff during their visits to the State Department, among other principal responsibilities. In Shawn’s current role in real estate, he regularly works with Pennsylvania Constables. This has allowed Shawn to build a solid network of support which he will utilize to serve as Lower Providence’s Constable. When Shawn is not busy running his real estate company, he thoroughly enjoys being outside, gardening, hiking, fishing, hunting, kayaking and shooting. Shawn lives in Lower Providence with his partner, Hannah, and their fury family. Shawn volunteers for many veteran focused groups, particularly to aid in Veteran suicide awareness and prevention. Shawn is also an avid beekeeper.
