After five seasons with Brynäs, she signed with Djurgårdens IF ahead of the 2018-19 SDHL season.

She spent the 2019-20 SDHL season with Leksands IF, putting up a career high 20 points in 36 games and scoring her first career SDHL playoff goal as the team was eliminated in the quarterfinals. She signed with AIK IF ahead of the 2020-21 season.[3]
