Career

Vedder-Wubben was born in the Hague on 20 May 1951. She attended the Hogere Burgerschool in Rijswijk. She subsequently studied to become an actuary. She spent her career in the field of actuarial science and pension advisement.

Vedder-Wubben became politically active for the Christian Democratic Appeal in The Hague. She subsequently became member of the Senate for the party, serving from 10 June 2003 until 7 June 2011.
