She then taught science and mathematics at several high schools before returning to school in 1931 to study biochemistry at the University of Chicago. After earning her Ph.D., she taught as an instructor in the chemistry department before moving on to the College of Medicine of the University of Illinois. She taught home economics there before moving on to Cornell University. After the second world war, she took a job as a nutrition specialist at the U.S. Department of Agriculture. She ended her career teaching home economics at Howard University from 1962 to 1966.[1]

She is the author or co-author of more than twenty-five technical publications and papers and was the recipient of the Borden Award, given by the American Association of Home Economics in 1947. [American Association of Family and Consumer Sciences (AAFCS), Home Economics]
