She graduated from Anderson-Shiro High School and after graduation she assisted her family on the dairy until she found her career as a Letter Carrier for USPS. Her commitment and dedication to the families she delivered to was unwavering. She was committed to her patrons over the years making sure the mail was delivered on time.

She was also known for her unquenchable thirst for Dr. Pepper and a Doral/Marlbaro. She had a love of Wolves and enjoyed adding to her collection of shot glasses. She always leaped at the opportunity to share vacations with family. Her favorite staycation was in her backyard sharing old classic music of a variety of genres with family and friends.
