Adams started her expert vocation as an artist in a 1994 supper theater creation of A Chorus Line in Boulder, Colorado. The work expected her to look out for tables before getting up in front of an audience to perform. She appreciated singing and moving, yet hated waitressing and ran into inconvenience when an individual artist, whom she thought about a companion, made bogus complaints about her to the chief. Adams said, "I never truly knew what the untruths were. I just realized I continued to get brought in and addressed with regards to my absence of demonstrable skill." During a presentation of Anything Goes at the Country Dinner Playhouse in 1995, she was spotted by Michael Brindisi, the president and creative head of the Minneapolis-based Chanhassen Dinner Theater, who extended to her an employment opportunity there. Adams moved to Chanhassen, Minnesota, where she acted in the venue for the following three years.
During her time at Chanhassen, Adams acted in her first film—a highly contrasting short parody named The Chromium Hook. Before long, while she was off work nursing a pulled muscle, she went to the privately held tryouts for the Hollywood film Drop Dead Gorgeous (1999), a parody on magnificence expos featuring Kirsten Dunst, Ellen Barkin, and Kirstie Alley. Adams was projected in the supporting piece of a wanton team promoter. She felt that her person's character was far eliminated from her own and stressed over how individuals would see her.

Following brief jobs in three limited scope elements of 2002—The Slaughter Rule, Pumpkin, and Serving Sara—Adams got her first high-profile part in Steven Spielberg's satire dramatization Catch Me If You Can. She played Brenda Strong, a medical attendant with whom Frank Abagnale Jr. (played by Leonardo DiCaprio) becomes hopelessly enamored. The film raised her certainty. Regardless of the film's prosperity and commendation for her "warm presence" from Variety pundit Todd McCarthy, it neglected to help her vocation. She was jobless for a year after its delivery, driving her to nearly stop film acting.

Her vocation prospects apparently further developed a year some other time when she got a rewarding proposal to star as a customary in the CBS TV dramatization Dr. Vegas, yet she was dropped after a couple of scenes.
