With this she collected u. a. international experience at the 2017 European Women's Volleyball Championship , where the team won the silver medal. In the 2017/18 season she was injured due to meniscus operations on both knees and was therefore not used. For the 2018/19 season she moved to Eurosped TopVolleybal Twente .
