She debuted for the Danish national team on 27 October 2013, and the same year she represented Denmark at the
2013 World Women's Handball Championship in Serbia, where the Danish team won bronze medals beating Poland in the third place playoff 30-26. She has been a mainstay on the national setup since. Since then she has won two additional bronze medals in
2021 and
2023. At the
2024 Olympics she won another bronze medal. Later the same year, she won silver medals at the
2024 European Championship, losing to Norway in the final. At the
2025 World Women's Handball Championship Denmark went out in the quarterfinal to France after winning all matches in the group stages. The Danish team was affected by a lot of players missing the tournament including goalkeepers
Sandra Toft and
Althea Reinhardt and pivots
Sarah Iversen and
Rikke Iversen. This was the first time since 2019 that Denmark left a major international tournament without any medals. In the quarterfinal against France Hansen only scored a single goal in the 59th minute when the match had already been decided. == Club career ==
