Khaliavin teamed up with Monko in 2000.[6] The two debuted on the ISU Junior Grand Prix series in 2006, placing 11th in Norway. They trained in Kirov before problems with ice time led them to move to Rostov in 2005.[7] They relocated with their coach to Moscow in May 2009.[6]

2009–2010 season: First JGP Final title

Monko/Khaliavin moved up to the senior level for the 2011–12 season. They were assigned to compete at 2011 Skate America and 2011 Cup of China as their Grand Prix events but Khaliavin fell ill with mononucleosis in September.[9][10] They withdrew from both Grand Prix events but returned to competition at the Russian Championships where they finished 5th.[10]

In February 2012, Monko/Khaliavin switched coaches to Alexander Zhulin and Oleg Volkov.[11][12]

Later in the month, they won the Spanish national title ahead of Olivia Smart / Adrià Díaz.

Hurtado/Khaliavin finished 13th at the 2017 European Championships in Ostrava, Czech Republic. It was their final competition of the season. The Federación Española Deportes de Hielo (FEDH) selected Smart/Díaz to compete at the 2017 World Championships.[21]

In July 2017, FEDH announced that Spain's Olympic spot in ice dancing would go to the team which received the highest combined score at the 2017 CS Golden Spin of Zagreb and Spanish Championships.[22]

In December, they finished fourth at the 2017 CS Golden Spin of Zagreb, just 0.30 points behind bronze medalists Kaitlin Hawayek / Jean-Luc Baker of the United States. They outscored Smart/Díaz by 4.18 points at Golden Spin and finished second at the Spanish Championships with a 3.23 deficit, resulting in a final advantage of 0.95 points. On 17 December 2017, FEDH confirmed that Hurtado/Khaliavin would compete at the Olympics.[23][24]

In January, Hurtado/Khaliavin placed 7th in the short dance, 10th in the free dance, and 8th overall at the 2018 European Championships in Moscow.
