It was during this time she married Jerry Anderson. She later transferred to Central State where she completed her English education degree in 1964. She began her teaching career at Northwest Classen in Oklahoma City and continued with various other schools in Oklahoma, Missouri and New Mexico. On a brief break from teaching, she was among the first group of women hired by Merrill Lynch and was a founding member and president of the Executive Women International, located in Dallas, Texas.

She married Bob Moss on February 10, 1979. They owned the Stable Steakhouse in Sayre and went on to own and operate many businesses including the Black Kettle Trading Post, in Cheyenne.

In 2003, she was appointed as the Tag Agent for Roger Mills County. During this time, she also served as President of the Chamber of Commerce.
