After graduating from West Point, Curley joined the Signal Corps.[6] The Associated Press reported that in 2017 she said, "As a young Army signal officer I was able to lead a large platoon in Europe during my first assignment ... that was at a time when women were not allowed to serve as platoon leaders in certain jobs."
She later became the chief legal adviser to the U.S. Army Europe commander, where she oversaw 300 legal officials in Europe.[6]
Marshal of the United States Supreme Court
Curley began serving as the Marshal of the United States Supreme Court on June 21, 2021. She is the second woman to hold the position, succeeding the first woman to do so, Pamela Talkin.[3] As Marshal, Curley opens each Supreme Court session with an Oyez! Oyez! Oyez! call. When announcing her appointment, the Court described her responsibilities as being the Court's "chief security officer, facilities administrator, and contracting executive, managing approximately 260 employees, including the Supreme Court Police Force."[3][4]
In July 2022, Curley sent letters to Maryland Governor Larry Hogan and Virginia Governor Glenn Youngkin asking them to enforce laws that prohibit protests and pickets outside of the private homes of justices.[8] On January 19, 2023, Curley released an official report on the leak of Dobbs.[9]
