Meet Paige

Paige was sworn in as Mayor of Scranton on January 6, 2020. 

Prior to becoming Mayor, she advised the Pennsylvania Auditor General, the chief fiscal watchdog of the commonwealth, on oversight of public school districts and care for older adults.

Paige previously served as a director on the Scranton School Board, overseeing a $160M budget and helping navigate the district's dual crises of financial distress and public mistrust. 

Paige served in the Obama administration from 2009-2012 as a senior advisor to the Under Secretary for International Affairs at the U.S. Treasury Department. She was a fundraiser and project director on numerous political campaigns, including running the out-of-state volunteer program in Pennsylvania for Barack Obama's 2008 campaign. 

Paige holds an MBA from Harvard Business School and graduated summa cum laude from the University of Oregon Clark Honors College with a BA in English Literature.

Paige lives in Scranton with her husband, Ryan, and their daughters, Sloane and Brooke. Much of the time they are fortunate to be joined by her mother, Lynda Gebhardt, the best grandma out there.
