She lived abroad for 14 years and, while most of that time was spent in the Middle East, in the United Arab Emirates (both Dubai and Abu Dhabi), she also lived briefly in Azerbaijan, where she worked for the UN in a freelance capacity, and wrote two booklets about the UN's work there, and then lived in Kazakhstan for a short time. In 2011, she became a petroleum landman, working mainly in the Eagle Ford Shale in Texas.
