Her résumé lists time with SHINE Wrestling and NWA, and she won the SHINE Nova Championship in 2023. The report also notes stints in Impact Wrestling (formerly TNA) and continued activity on the independent scene, with her most recent match before the arrest recorded on September 19, 2026.

Court docket records show a scheduled hearing on October 24 and a compliance date on November 2, and she remains out on bail pending those legal proceedings.
