After graduating, Scarlett dabbled in law classes and child development classes and eventually was working both at a law firm and for Los Angeles Unified School District. Scarlett is currently a principal for Eastman Early Education Center and Murchison Early Education Center in the East Los Angeles Area.

Scarlett has been a member of TJA since 2008 and enjoys catching up with friends at the monthly meetings.
