In 1879–80 she attended the first mathematics class at Bedford and was one of the first women to graduate from London University, getting a BSc in 1884 and a BA in 1885. She then stayed at Bedford until 1916, initially as a lecturer in mathematics and physics. From 1892 to 1894 she also worked as 'resident helper' at the College, received free board and lodging in return. Later she also help out in Greek and Latin classes.
