Born in Perth, Western Australia,[2] and educated at Corpus Christi College, Perth,[3] Biss represented WA at the 2006–07 National Under 19 Championships, and made her debut for the Fury in 2007–08.[4] The highlight of her debut season was her claiming of the final wicket in a famous WNCL victory over the New South Wales Breakers at Aquinas College.[2]

Since then, Biss has been a regular opening bowler in the Fury side,[3][4] and also a big-hitting lower-order batter.[2] In November 2013, she again starred for the Fury, with a five-wicket haul against Victorian Spirit.[2]

Biss was named in the Scorchers squad for its inaugural WBBL|01 season (2015–16),[3][5] and achieved best figures of 2–14.[2] She remained in the Scorchers squad for the WBBL|02 season (2016–17).[6]
