Her family was active in the Maryland and Baltimore County political process, including civic organizations, holding every board position. In 1986, she ran for the elected political office of Maryland Democratic State Central Committee. Although she lost by just 30 votes, she continued to be an advocate for the Maryland Democratic Party and democracy.

In 2011, she moved to Ocala, Marion County, and immediately immersed herself in community groups, organizations, fighting hate, fighting for equality, and helping with election campaigns.
