Career[edit]
She first played internationally as an under-15, and continued to feature for Norway through U23 level.[2]

She was the only player who refused.[7] In 2019, Olsen signed for Norwegian club Kolbotn.[8] In 2021, Olsen played for Amazon Grimstad, and in August 2021, she played against her sister Karen Andrea Olsen, who was goalkeeper for Gimletroll.[9]
