Rose Williams Bradford joined Toastmasters in April 1999 and became an active member and leader in ExxonMobil Toastmasters.  Before leadership at the District Level, Rose served in leadership roles in the three clubs she currently belongs to, Determined to Master Speaking (DTMS), Dining Out Toastmasters, and Wordcrafters (presently serving as Treasurer).   Additionally, she supported members outside her clubs as Club Sponsor, Club Mentor, and Club Coach.  She began District leadership as the Area O12 Governor in 2013-2014.  She continued serving D56 as the last Division O Governor and continued in leadership through the 2022-2023 fiscal year.  She held varied District roles, including Committee Chairs/Co-Chairs, Pathways Ambassador, Club Growth Director, Program Quality Director, District Director, and Immediate Past District Director.  Rose is passionate about members connecting and collaborating outside their clubs and strongly advocates for Area and Division Council Meetings throughout the District. She believes council meetings allow reaching members outside our clubs and be the conduit that motivates them to do more, grow more, and stay engaged in Toastmasters.
