She studied at the School of Social Work, University of Toronto, a Christian Education Course at Hartford, Connecticut, at Union Theological Seminary in New York, at Emmanuel College and at the United Church Training School.

Prior to being designated as a deaconess, she spent eight years as a matron under the Board of Home Missions at Norway House and two years as a matron at Coqualeetza Indian School at Sardis, B.C. After designation, she served at File Hills, Saskatchewan, Crosby Girls' School, Port Simpson, B.C., Warden United Church, Glace Bay, N.S., St. Columba Community Centre, Montreal, and All People's Church, Hamilton.
