In 2012, she was selected into the Silver Ferns[3] and made her debut in the Quad Series that year, against South Africa.[4] She was a shock selection after playing only one quarter in the 2012 ANZ season, and was picked based on a strong trial, and her natural athleticism and fitness.[5] She played in the 2012 Constellation Cup and Quad Series, earning three caps.[6]
She was also selected for the 2012 Fast5 Netball World Series, where she was used in the goal shoot position. She performed well in a number of matches and finished with one of the highest shooting percentages in the tournament.[7]
