Gloria rose quickly in USP after she was elected to the Grand National Assembly in 1937. She was appointed as a special adviser to the Minister of Interior in 1938, before being brought as the frontbench spokeswoman for Home Affairs in 1942, and the spokeswoman for Education in 1944. In 1949, she was elected as the Speaker of the Grand National Assembly, in protest against President Ewald Alphonso's reformist agenda. She is the first woman in Sordland to hold that position.
