Career

Weiszewski was born in Viersen, Germany. When she was 11, her family moved to Poland.[3] She participated in athletics and fire-fighting sport in her youth, and won a medal in the latter in 2014.[4]

Weiszewski began competing in bobsleigh in 2019, after expressing interest after watching a four-man event. She was forced to miss the 2020–21 season after suffering an injury while training at Lillehammer, but returned to competition the following season.[3] In 2023, she earned bronze in monobob at the Junior European Championships. In 2024, Weiszewski earned a bronze medal in monobob at the Junior World Championships, making her the first female Polish athlete to win a medal at the Junior World Championships.[5] The following year, she earned bronze in both the monobob and two-women events for the Junior World Championships.[6][7] She has competed in the IBSF Bobsleigh World Cup since 2023.

In 2026, she was selected to represent Poland at the 2026 Winter Olympics in both the monobob and two-woman competitions.[2] She and her brakewoman Klaudia Adamek in the two-woman competition were the only Polish competitors in bobsleigh in the 2026 Olympics.
