REPRESENTING MONTENEGRO
She was born in Croatia and represented the country at junior international level, but switched to representing Montenegro in May 2020 following a number of years playing club handball at ZRK Buducnost in Podgorica. "It is not the same as playing for Croatia, which is my homeland. But after five years in Montenegro, the people here have given me opportunities and chances in everything, and they always stand by me as if I was one of their players. Montenegro has a special place in my heart." (balkan-handball.com, 26 May 2020; sport.blic.rs, 20 Nov 2020)' cgsport.me, 17 May 2020; rukometnizurnal.com, 29 Nov 2020; ijesti.me, 09 Dec 2020)
