She is the eldest daughter of rock musician Tom Petty. Petty is currently signed as a Director with Moxie Pictures Production Company in the United States.

Petty attended Tisch School of the Arts's graduate program prior to her film career. After college, Petty gathered work experience by working as an assistant to directors such as Penny Marshall, Oscar-winner Jonathan Demme, and Oscar-nominated documentary executive Jonathan Stack.

She collaborated with artist Anna Gabriel and musician Howie Statland on a site-specific installation at New York’s modern art gallery PS1, a division of the Museum of Modern Art in 1998; the group called themselves "Low Flame." The installation detailed the life of a lonely garbage man that built friends out of garbage.

Petty has directed videos for artists such as Regina Spektor, Beyoncé, Coldplay & Rihanna, Kings of Leon, Macy Gray, Corinne Bailey Rae, Duffy, The Duke Spirit, The Veronicas, and Mat Kearney. Petty has also been asked to work outside of the music video format. In 2005, she created tour visuals for rock band The Who. Petty was employed on a freelance basis as a marketing consultant at Sire Records, working with many artists and working on a rebrand of the label. While working at Sire, she most notably created signature marketing campaigns and videos for Regina Spektor.
