After attending Iowa State University, Bader played on the Futures Tour for four years before gaining her LPGA Tour card at the 2000 LPGA Final Qualifying Tournament. In her second LPGA season, 2002, she posted a top-five result at the Giant Eagle LPGA Classic.[3] Having finished 90th and 91st, respectively, in the 2002 and 2003 season money lists, Bader fell to 113th in 2004.[2] At the 2004 LPGA Final Qualifying Tournament, she won her card for the following year.[4] Bader earned over $100,000 in 2005 and 2006, and made a career-high $286,761 in 2007. She was 119th on the money list in 2008, down from 46th the previous year. In 2009, her earnings of over $125,000 placed her 74th on the Tour. Over the next four years, Bader did not finish higher than 119th in annual earnings.[2]

In 2006, Bader was inducted into the Iowa State Cyclones Hall of Fame.[5]
