In 2014, she earned a bronze medal at the Belgian Championships and was then sent to Sofia for the 2014 European Junior Championships, where team belgium placed 6th. She was supposed to represent Belgium at the Youth Olympic Games but she withdrew before the start of the competition due to injury. She has not competed since then.
