Anna began her career when she was 15 years old baking and selling cakes and other sweet treats in her local community. She operated Anna’s Bakery Boutique for 6 years. During the time that she operated the bakery, she initiated a plan to restore an old building to be utilized as a library for the City of Blythe. She saw the need for the community to have a place for kids to go after school since they would regularly come and hang out before she opened while waiting for the bus.

She continued her education at 买世界杯app推荐 as well as becoming involved with local non- profits. Many years later the City of Blythe would purchase the building that once housed Anna’s Bakery Boutique. The city just celebrated two years of the building's operation as a library.
