She managed to win national cup in three different countries. Swiss Cup with FC Rot-Schwarz Thun in 2009, German Cup in 2014 with Frankfurt and Spanish Cup three times in a row (2020, 2021, 2022) with Barcelona.

She is fluent in multiple languages, including Croatian, German, English, and Catalan. Her first language was Croatian, reflecting her heritage.

Born in Steffisburg, Switzerland, to Croatian parents from Ruma, she embraces both Swiss and Croatian cultures.

She has dual citizenship (Croatian and Swiss) and could represent both countries. She chose to play for Switzerland.

Her father initially encouraged her to play tennis, considering football unsuitable for girls. However, with her mother's support, Ana-Maria pursued football from the age of 11.
