[edit] Career
Her career began with ASV Hofstetten when she played as a forward. Soon however, she was to realize her potential as a goalkeeper after an injury to the playing keeper.
In 1995 she switched to 1. FC Nürnberg and a year later she switched to FC Wacker. While at Wacker, she was given the opportunity to play football for an American college soccer team, but she refused.
