Early 2024 she reached the finals and finished 6th in the women's 60 metres at the 2024 World Athletics Indoor Championships in Glasgow.[4] Later that year, she ran as part of the Belgian 4x100m relay team at the 2024 World Relays Championships in Nassau, Bahamas that failed to qualify directly for the 2024 Summer Olympics.[5] She represented Belgium at the 2024 European Athletics Championships in Rome in June 2024.[6] Finishing 1st in her round 1 heat of the women's 100 metres, she advanced directly to the semi-finals where she finished 5th in her semi-final, not advancing to the final.[7] She was also part of the Belgian 4x100m relay team which qualified for the final and finished 6th.[8] Having qualified for the women's 100 metres at the 2024 Summer Olympic Games via the World Athletics Rankings,[9] she finished 4th in her round 1 heat posting a PB of 11.10s that allowed her to progress to the semi-finals as fastest athlete not directly qualified.[10] She finished 8th in her semi-final.[11] She also ran in the women's 4 × 100 metres relay, the Belgian team also having qualified for the 2024 Summer Olympic Games via the World Athletics Rankings.[12] The team was however disqualified in round 1 when Elise Mehuys passed the baton to Delphine Nkansa outside the takeover zone.[13][14]
