She raised her profile when she joined the cast of popular sci-fi drama Real Humans, a TV series that was exported around the world including the United Kingdom and France. [3] She made her English language debut with Ø, an English-Language French TV series filmed in Denmark.
In 2018, she landed one of the roles in French feature film Soeurs d'armes (Sisters in arms), inspired by a real military unit with female Kurdish, Yezidi and resistance fighters fighters taking on ISIS,[4] and was the only actress who did not speak any French. She portrayed an African-American sniper. [5]
