Career

Early career Khudaiberdieva began learning to skate in 2006.

2019–2020 season: Debut of Khudaiberdieva/Filatov Khudaiberdieva teamed up with Andrei Filatov in late April 2019. The team made their international junior debut in September 2019 at the 2019 JGP event in Riga, Latvia, where they won the gold medal. They placed first in the rhythm dance and second in the free dance, winning over the silver medalists, Georgian team Kazakova/Reviya, by about 0.3 points.

The pair were withdrawn from their second event, JGP Poland, due to a medical problem and were reassigned to the final Junior Grand Prix stage of the season, JGP Italy. In Egna, they again won gold and qualified for 2019–20 ISU Junior Grand Prix Final, where they finished fourth. Khudaiberdieva/Filatov did not compete again until February 2020 at the 2020 Russian Junior Nationals, where they finished just off the podium in fourth, thus narrowly missing being named to the team for the 2020 World Junior Figure Skating Championships.

In May 2020, Khudaiberdieva was listed as a member of the Russian senior national figure skating team with a new partner, two-time Winter Universiade silver medalist Egor Bazin, marking the end of her partnership with Filatov and her advancement to the senior ranks. Khudaiberdieva/Bazin were to be coached in Balashikha by a hybrid team of Khudaiberdieva's coaches, Denis Samokhin and Maria Borovikova, and Bazin's coach, Oleg Sudakov.
