She won gold medals in downhill and super-G at the Junior World Championships at Davos in 2018.[2][3]

In February 2023, she won her first world championships medal, taking bronze in super-G at Méribel, France.[6] Her first World Cup victory came a few weeks later in a downhill at Kvitfjell, Norway. That victory was the first ever for the Norwegian women's team in a World Cup downhill. [7]
