Graciela Vidal, Secretary

rosie1Education: St. Leo University, and is currently taking classes at St. Petersburg College
Career: Hillsborough County Sheriff's Office
Position:  Senior Digital Communications Dispatcher and Trainer
Goals:  To transition her career into the nonprofit sector.

Rosie Vidal was born and raised in Tampa and has lived here her entire life.  She is one of the rare Tampa natives and can not imagine calling anywhere else home.  She attended private school and graduated from the Academy of the Holy Names.  She has been taking classes at St. Petersburg College while working full time and enjoying life as a new mommy.

Rosie spends almost all of my free time with her adorable son, Nathan, who was born in July 2010 and her husband, Dean.  When she is not with them, she enjoys volunteering and spending time with friends.  Rosie also loves a nice glass of riesling, getting pampered at Pia’s and Mikel’s, visiting Mazzaro’s, spending time at the beach, and a nice Starbucks coffee.
