Career

Early years

Lopareva began learning how to skate as a four-year-old, in 2004.[1] She competed with her first partner, Alexey Karpushov, for five seasons. The two debuted on the ISU Junior Grand Prix (JGP) series in September 2016, placing 4th in Ostrava, Czech Republic. They had the same overall result at 2018 JGP Austria but did not compete again for the rest of the season. The team ended their partnership prior to the start of the 2018–19 figure skating season.[2]

2018–19 season

Before the start of the 2018-19 season, Lopareva teamed up with French ice dancer Geoffrey Brissaud to compete for France. The new team received two international assignments - the 2019 Egna Dance Trophy where they took silver in the junior division, and the 2019 World Junior Figure Skating Championships where they placed 10th.

2019–20 season: Senior international debut

Lopareva/Brissaud made their senior international debut in September at their first assignment of the 2019–20 season, the 2019 CS Nepela Memorial Trophy. Here, the team placed 8th in the rhythm dance, but made a comeback in the free dance (4th) to finish 6th overall. The pair also set new personal bests in all three segments at the event.

At their next Challenger Series assignment, 2019 CS Warsaw Cup, Lopareva/Brissaud again set another personal best in the rhythm dance.
