Career for tricky character?

Question

I have been searching my brain trying to determine a career for a very important character in a three installment novel. I keep going back and rewriting the details of her work and it's driving me mad...

The character is a young 20's female who due to an accident about 2years before the story has brain damage in the form of long-term memory loss, she also has a slight limp and occasional pain in her legs. She is highly intelligent but is not sociable kite the opposite she is one step from a shut-in and I really would like to give her a job that she can do from her home. What she did before the accident i keep changing with the current career so I'm finding no help in that, but I would like her to have made a decent to good living before her accident. She is highly logical as well and doesn't put much stock in the emotional or whimsical side of life. The amount of money her current employment brings in is a non-issue due to other circumstances.

What could a young intelligent woman do that does not involve a lot of social interaction or physical activity with little to no skill sets due to her memory loss?

She was a just graduated attorney having entered college at 16 and finished law school at 23.  Now she works at home filing appeals for veterans benefits for faceless clients she will never meet who have been victimized and robbed of their future just as she feels she has.and her bright future reduced now to mostly clerical work, but work that requires her JD after her name.Privately she thinks the initials quite fitting as her two most used by-words are: Jesus and Damn!
