Greiling served 10 terms in the Minnesota House. She was first elected in 1992 in the old District 54B after serving on the Roseville School Board for five years. Following redistricting in 2002, her home became part of 54A. This district was previously represented by Mary Jo McGuire, who retired from the legislature to avoid running against a fellow Democrat in her new district, 66B.

Greiling is an advocate of education, environmental issues, and mental health issues. She served as the K-12 Education Finance Committee Chair. She founded and chaired the Mental Health Caucus, a bipartisan committee formed from the Minnesota House and the Minnesota Senate. She also served as an assistant minority leader during the 2003-2004 Legislative Session.

In January, 2012, before the redistricting following the 2010 Census, Greiling announced that she would not seek reelection in 2012.

Greiling graduated from Gustavus Adolphus College in 1970 and obtained a Masters in Education from the University of Minnesota in 1975. She is married to Roger Greiling and has two children.
