Monroe-Moreno was born in 1964 in Tucson, Arizona, moving to Nevada in 1994. She worked for the Maricopa County Sheriff's Office and later as a corrections officer for the North Las Vegas Police Department. Monroe-Moreno was a member of the North Las Vegas Steering Committee from 2000 until 2002.

In April 2017, Monroe-Moreno introduced a bill in the Assembly which would ban private prisons in the state. Despite it passing in both the House and Senate, the bill was vetoed by Governor Brian Sandoval, who stated, "...because the bill improperly encroaches on the authority and discretion of the executive branch of state government, including the State Board of Prison Commissioners, I cannot support it."
