She has won six national championships at senior level,[1] and ranked in the top 60, at 51st place, on the IAAF world leading list at the end of the 2017 outdoor season.[2] She is the daughter of the former shot putter Corrado Fantini.[3]

In 2019 her personal record 70.30 m, besides being the 32th result of the world lists of the year (which allowed her to be invited by the IAAF for the 2019 World Athletics Championships thanks to the target numbers), and national record under 23 , is also the 4th best all-time Italian performance.[4]
