She worked as a teacher before coming to Oberlin College in 1869. While at Oberlin, Gulick took a three-year leave of absence to found and teach at Finlay High School in Ohio. She returned to Oberlin College in 1873 and graduated in 1875 after completing the Literary course. 
  
  Upon graduating, Gulick worked as a missionary in Japan under the American Board of Commissioners for Foreign Missions. In 1878, she co-founded the Baikwa Girls’ School in Osaka, Japan. She also conducted missionary work by visiting the homes of married Japanese women. Gulick married Dr. John Thomas Gulick, a fellow missionary and writer, in 1880. The couple remained in Japan conducting missionary work until their retirement in 1899.  The couple returned to the United States and moved to Oberlin in 1900. They relocated to Honolulu, Hawaii in 1906.
  
  Gulick continued to conduct missionary work in Hawaii and helped run her church’s Sunday school. During World War I, she contributed to the war effort by working for the Red Cross. When her husband became ill during the 1920s, Gulick stopped conducting missionary work outside of the home. Instead, she opened her home to missionaries on their way to and from Japan. She died in 1928.
