She competed in the 2008 Summer Paralympics in Beijing, China. There she won a gold medal in the women's 800 metres — T53 event,[2] a silver medal in the women's 400 metres — T53 event and a bronze medal in the women's 200 metres — T53 event.

At the 2012 Summer Paralympics in London, United Kingdom she won a silver medal in the women's 100 metres T53 event, a bronze medal in the women's 200 metres T53 event, a gold medal in the women's 4000 metres T53 event and a gold medal in the 800 metres T53 event.
