At a young age, she sang in a musical trio with her sister, Betty, and neighbor friend, often singing on the radio. She loved art, music, dancing and fashion.

In 1963, they moved to Las Vegas, Nevada, where she immediately got involved in PTA, Campfire Girls and neighborhood projects teaching arts and crafts.
