With 18th place in Umhausen , 15th place in Latzfons and 14th place in Garmisch-Partenkirchen , she has not yet achieved any top positions in the World Cup and she was only ever among the last four.

In the overall World Cup, she was able to improve by one place to 15th place. Also at the 2011 World Championships in Umhausen - her first title fight in the general class - she came in 17th place only on the penultimate place. Her result at the European Junior Championships 2011 in Laas was a little better . There she finished eleventh among 15 rated female tobogganists. She was also eleventh (out of 19 rated female tobogganers) at the Junior World Championships 2012 in Latsch . At the 2012 European Championships in Nowouralsk , which was held two weeks later , she was twelfth in the singles and eighth in the team competition together with the three Poles Adam Jędrzejko , Andrzej Laszczak and Damian Waniczek .
