Rose Gerber is a musician and an employee of the Oregon Department of Transportation. She has two bands, (Rose Gerber and Sweet Relief AND The Yellow Bird Trio), and she works for ODOT as a day job. In this episode we talk about music, creativity, and large-scale infrastructure projects, and she will play us a few songs, which is a great mix of topics for our unique tastes here at Ramble by the River.

Some topics you'll enjoy:

Inside scoop on the I-5 Rose quarter improvement project and ODOT's plan to move the highway underground.
The government's history of victimizing black communities.
Rose's introduction to music and her path to becoming the front woman for her current band.
Work-life balance and how it affects the ability to pursue one's dreams.
Rose's romantic encounter with Jack during Covid-19 and what it was like to meet someone during a pandemic.
Rose talks about many of her musical inspirations.

Rose was a great guest and I really appreciated her taking the time to talk with me for this episode. If you are interested in hearing more of her music, check out her stuff at the links below.
