From 1937 to 1940, Khana Krumer worked as a laboratory assistant at the Leibovich Joint-Stock Company photographic laboratory in Riga while attending the evening department of the Raiņa Gymnasium, which she graduated from in 1939. From 1940 to 1941, she worked as a photographic laboratory assistant at the House of the Red Army.

During World War II, she was evacuated to the city of Gorky, where from 1941 to 1942 she worked at the Mekhsteklozavod Glass Factory. Later, she traveled through the Novosibirsk Region to Kazakhstan. From 1942 to 1945, she served as a secretary for the Medical-Labor Expert Commission (VTEK) of the Department of Social Welfare in Mary, Turkmen SSR.

After the war, she returned to Riga, where until 1947 she worked as a supply manager in the administrative department of the Main Administration of Agricultural Cooperation and as a secretary-stenographer. From 1952 to 1956, she worked at the Sadarbība Sewing Factory. From 1959 to 1978, she worked as an educator at the Kaija Club, the Pishchevik Pioneer Camp, and the Children’s Room of the Riga Dairy Plant (she had no formal pedagogical training). Since 1978, she was retired.

In 1979, she applied for permission to emigrate to Israel with her family.

She was awarded the Medal “For Valiant Labor in the Great Patriotic War of 1941–1945.”
