Looking back at her time in office, Iorio recalled her experiences with the Tampa Police Department. As early as the day she was sworn in, she was faced with a palpable crisis.

She said this was a defining moment in her career. The crisis spurred her to grow, and develop her own unique leadership style as a mayor.

While she was mayor, she recalled that Tampa residents would often impatiently ask her to take action, and order people to follow her demands. She said that the way somebody wields power says a lot about who that person really is at the core.
