She is a former member of the Kansas House of Representatives representing the 113th district from March 19, 2019, to January 11, 2021 . A resident of Ellinwood, Kansas, she was selected by Republican precinct committee members on March 12, 2019, to succeed former Rep.

Prior to her election to the House of Representatives, she served as a county commissioner in Barton County, Kansas and was the commission chairman from January to March 2019.[2] She resigned from the county commission from a meeting on March 18, 2019, in order to take her seat in the Kansas Legislature.[3]
During the party convention to succeed Representative Lewis, Senator Straub received 51 votes, with 22 votes going to Doug Keesling, a farmer from Rice County, Kansas and 18 votes going to Donna Hoener-Queal, a retired court services officer from Pratt, Kansas.[4]
