During her first term in office, Steele overcame partisan politics to secure a half-million dollars into the state budget for Mental Health First Aid.

After a 25-year career as a television and radio news anchor, including positions at KOLD-TV, KNST and KFYI Radio, she began a second career as a mental health counselor.
