She made her professional MMA debut with the promotion in February 2021, defeating Thailand’s Sunisa Srisen by submission with a rear-naked choke just over a minute into the second round.

Her second fight occurred in July 2021, when she posted another submission, defeating China’s Wang Luping with an armbar in less than four minutes.

She made her third walk to the ONE Circle only two months later, defeating Victoria Souza of Brazil by first-round TKO.
