Ms. McQueer invented three first-of-their-kind patented products, the female football shoulder pad, the sports bra to protect breast tissue against blunt trauma causing breast cancer, and the female bullet-proof vest. She began designing shoulder pads and breast protection for her football team. Second, she designed the sports bra from her own experience as a martial artist and athlete. Ms. McQueer suffered injuries leading to pre-cancer of the breast, and that led her to design a sports bra to protect the tissues of the breast.

Initially, Ms. McQueer became involved in her profession because of two reasons. One is that she purchased a female football team and found that the protective pads available were made for men. She attributes her success to networking with a great group of mentors. She also credits her mom, who ran a business while raising four children, and it showed her how to be able to balance the two. In five years, Ms. McQueer will educate women on safety and protection of breast tissue and long-term health, and introduce her products to women.
