Her personal best throw is 66.06 metres, achieved on July 30, 2008 in Leverkusen, Germany, making her world 3rd-best for the year at that time. Ironically, she did not qualify for the German Olympic team, because she fell short two centimeters of meeting the required result to qualify before the deadline.
She grew up in Blomberg, and studies at the University of Münster. She represents the sports club TSV Bayer 04 Leverkusen, having changed club in 2003 from LG Lippe-Süd, and trains with Steffi Nerius under coach Helge Zöllkau.
