She won the bronze medal at the 2009 Mediterranean Games and represented Italy at the 2009 World Championships in Athletics. She has also competed at European-level both indoors and outdoors. She was a double Italian record holder in the event with an outdoor best of 4.60 metres and an indoor best of 4.50 m until 17 February 2013.

At the start of 2010 she improved her indoor record to 4.50 m in Udine, but she missed out on the 2010 IAAF World Indoor Championships as her compatriot Elena Scarpellini was selected instead. She retired at the end of 2012.

The 2009 season saw her reach new heights: she cleared 4.40 m indoors in Udine in February and equalled that mark to qualify for the final of the 2009 European Athletics Indoor Championships in Turin. However, in the final she finished last, having failed to clear a height in three attempts. She finished ninth in the women's pole vault at the 2009 European Team Championships but went on to win the bronze medal at the 2009 Mediterranean Games in Pescara with a vault of 4.35 m, her first medal a major international competition. She qualified to represent Italy for the 2009 World Championships in Athletics and just missed out on making the final, recording a mark of 4.50 m and losing out to Kristina Gadschiew on count-back. Nevertheless, she had set five Italian records over the year, which she ended with a personal best of 4.60 m.

After changing her athletics coach to work with Slovenian Igor Lapajne in 2005, she began to improve and became the Italian indoor pole vault champion and attended the European Cup in 2006, where she finished fifth in the First League competition. She received an invitation to attend the 2006 European Athletics Championships and finished tenth in the qualifiers with a vault of 4.15 m. She had much improved her personal best mark over the course of 2006, resulting in an Italian record of 4.32 m in Busto Arsizio. After winning at the Italian indoor championships, she gained her first outdoor national title in 2007. Giordano Bruno retained her indoor title for a third victory in 2008 and repeated the feat outdoors. While she did not attend any major championships during this period, she improved her personal bests and had an outdoor mark of 4.41 m and an indoor mark of 4.25 m.
