She won her first fight there in the weight class up to 66 kg body weight over Teres Szabo from Hungary on points (29: 7), but lost in the quarterfinals to Oleksandra Koslan from Ukraine on points (11:32) and thus finished 5th . She also started at the 2005 World Cup in Podolsk . There she won over Pauliina Virta from Finland by breaking off in the first round, but met Oleksandra Koslan again in the quarterfinals, who again lost on points, but the defeat was much narrower with 13:17 points, as in the European Championship.

In the quarter-finals she met Aya Cissoko again and lost again, but her defeat with 14:19 points was very honorable, especially since Aya Cissoko finally became world champion in the further course of the competition.

She beat there Amanda Coulson from England, a multiple medalist at World and European Championships on points (16:10). At the 2008 World Cup in Ningbo / China, however, she again lost to Irina Potejewa on points (8:10) and therefore ended up in 9th place with all the losers in the round of 16. In 2009 she did not take part in any international championships. In 2010 she won a bronze medal at the championship of the European Union in Keszthely / Hungary in the welterweight division after a defeat in the semi-finals against Savannah Marshall from England (2-4).
