===Early career===
After graduating, Gargano contested and won a local council seat in Kimmeridge in 1997, where she served up until 2010. Gargano is known as a steadfast and passionate politician.
Gargano served as one of three federal councillors from the state of Thomaria, with the other two being members of a Thomarian secessionist party. On 23 January 2020, her brother Isaac Kipling, who served in the Gemotern, was killed by a knife attack during one of his constituency surguries. He was a member of the CSDP, and Gargano grew infuriated at the party after they failed to give any form of recognition to her brother. At Kipling's constituency's by-election, the CSDP did not concentrate any campaigns there, and therefore the seat was lost to the Conservative Union.

=== Prime Minister of Wealden (2023 - present) ===
