She played at both Lokomotiva and Katarina handball clubs in Mostar before moving to play at Zamet in Croatia, later Dunaújváros in Hungary and Metz in France in 2020.[4] She rose to prominence at the 2020 European Women's Handball Championship when she surprisingly won the bronze medal with Croatia, as one of the team leaders.[5][6]
