Her career spans teaching positions at Mid-Del Vo-Tech, Eisenhower Middle School, John Marshall High School—where she launched the Biotechnology Program—Centennial Mid-High, and Northeast Academy, where she pioneered its first middle school HOSA chapter. Today, she continues to inspire students as a CTE/Science Instructor at Emerson South Mid-High.

Lulla Belle's impact extends far beyond traditional academics. She has provided students with life-changing experiences, from conducting DNA analysis in labs to competing in national and international conferences. As a HOSA Advisor, she has led students to success in public speaking, parliamentary procedures, health poster illustrations, and science fairs, with many earning scholarships and awards for their achievements.
