Two weeks after she graduated from Runge High School in 1961 she was employed by Southwestern Bell in San Antonio until becoming a resident of Houston in 1963 where she married. She then was employed at Kerlin Employment Agency/Kelly Girls, and F.A. Callery and General Crude, independent oil companies. Her longtime employment with Tech-Sym Corporation, a New York Stock Exchange company, began in 1966, and continued until its sale to a private company in 2000 at which time she retired.

A legal secretary, she was also a member of the American Society of Corporate Secretaries. She loved music and the arts and was a devoted student of metaphysics and holistic health. Since 1972, she served the Association for Research and Enlightenment as a volunteer in many capacities including the founding of a health center in Spring Branch.

Her great interest in cultural affairs included the Houston Grand Opera, Alley Theater, Museum of Fine Arts, Museum of Printing History, and the Carl Jung Institute.
