When she was a teenager, her father bought her a thoroughbred mare. She learned to ride and bred her mare. The resulting colt was a successful race horse. Later, she was an instructor and operator of a riding academy at her Rocky Hill farm in Millersville.
She graduated from Glen Burnie HS in 1957. In October 1962, she married Charles Bryant Boyer, and they had two daughters. In addition to training race horses, she raised lions, tigers and leopards for wildlife parks. One of the cubs she adopted as her own. She and Bryant also bred Mastiffs.
She was a member of the Maryland Trainers Association, the U.S. Pony Club, and the North and East Mastiff Dog Club.
