At 18 she went to work as a Cass County jailer, reserve police officer, and eventually, a police officer in Red Oak and Glenwood from 2012-2017, when she became an Iowa State Patrol Officer. She was respected for learning how to do handle her responsibilities in a professional manner. She supported her Blue family in any way she could. Her favorite place to be was patrolling in the dark to remove those that could cause harm to others. Rose served until taking medical retirement April 15, 2024.
