As the Female Resident Director, Rachel McCracken has the privilege of working with the college’s Resident Assistants and students. Rachel graduated from Patrick Henry College in 2023 with a B.A. in Classical Liberal Arts and a minor in Biblical Studies. After graduation, Rachel served at Christian Encounter Ranch, a residential ministry in California that shepherds teens and young adults toward healing and restoration.
Rachel is adventurous, naturally loving any activity that takes place outside. She enjoys sports, reading, exploring new places, walks, stargazing, music, flowers, coffee, and anything competitive. Although Rachel enjoys group activities, she treasures the one-on-one time that she gets with students at Patrick Henry. Her favorite part of the job is walking alongside students as they journey closer to the Lord and fall more in love with Him.
Rachel desires to eventually pursue higher education in counseling. She has a passion for discipleship and residential ministry and would like to one day pursue anti-human trafficking work.
Landon graduated from PHC with a B.A. in American Politics and Policy (APP) in May 2025. He greatly enjoyed his time at Patrick Henry College, serving as an RA, a Student Senator, a member of the Public Square team, and a member of the Homecoming Committee. He loved to plan fun events for the student body like the D4 Block Party, and was always outside playing sports, whether it was sunny, rainy, or snowy.
Landon was born in Kansas but moved around a lot as a child due to his Dad being in the Army, and currently resides in Western Pennsylvania.
Landon is a natural extrovert and loves to hang out with friends and family whenever he can. He enjoys sports (both watching and playing), music, reading a good book, and meaningful conversations. His favorite part of the job is seeing how the Lord works in a student's life to draw them closer to Him.
Landon is excited to work as the next Male Resident Director at Patrick Henry College and pour into the men on campus. He loves the community that the Student Life team has together and strives to continue building strong bonds within the RA team. Landon would love to run for public office one day, but is ready for wherever God calls him to go.
