Ma worked as a teacher. In 1924 she was forced to resign from her position at the No. 2 Women's Normal School when the dean was ordered to rid the school of progressive teachers.[1] She later became headteacher of a school in Peking, where she worked until 1948.[2]

She was a candidate in Hebei in the 1948 elections for the Legislative Yuan, and was elected to parliament.[3] After being elected, she sat on the Education and Culture Committee, the Political and Local Autonomy Committee and the Social Committee.[3] Her membership of the Legislative Yuan was cancelled in 1951 after she failed to attend the fifth session of parliament and she was replaced by Wang Hua-min.[4]
