Irene attended Contra Costa College and completed five years active duty in the U.S. Marine Corps. She remains in the Marine Corps Reserve where she serves as platoon chief and assistant training and operations chief in a San Jose unit. On active duty, Irene specialized in logistics, serving as the non-commissioned officer in charge for shipping at Marine Corps Air Station Miramar in San Diego and as the non-commissioned officer in charge of passenger transportation at Marine Forces Reserve Headquarters in New Orleans. She was awarded the Navy and Marine Corps Achievement Medal and the Navy and Marine Corps Commendation Medal.
