Pamela Rock, the youngest of 14 children, was born and raised in Plantation, FL. After graduating from the University of Florida, she worked for the Alachua County Women, Infants and Children (WIC) program. She also served as a Peace Corps volunteer in Guatemala for three years and later worked on the Crow Indian Reservation in Montana teaching nutrition. She vociferously advocated on Capitol Hill for the needs of women and children trapped in poverty before joining the Postal Service as a letter carrier in January 2022.
