Career
Starting her youth career in Eidanger IL, she moved to a larger team in Porsgrunn, Urædd FK, and helped win promotion to the team's sole season in the 2016 Toppserien. She also represented Norway internationally from the U15 category.[1][2] She took part in the 2017 UEFA Women's Under-17 Championship[3] and the 2019 UEFA Women's Under-19 Championship.[4]
At the age of 17 she left Eidanger behind to attend the Norwegian School of Elite Sport and pursue a career at Stabæk.[5][6] Still, she received a grant from Telemark County Municipality.[7]
After Stabæk was relegated from the 2019 Toppserien,[8] she opted to stay. At the age of 22, she reached 100 official games for Stabæk as the youngest player to do so.[9] In June 2026, she was honored for reaching 200 games across all competitions for Stabæk, being the fifth player to reach this hallmark.[10]
Personal life
Graduating from the University of Oslo with a master's degree in criminology, she was subsequently employed by SpareBank 1 SR-Bank in a job combatting money laundering.[11]
