Career Early years Frank was introduced to skating at the age of three, with her family later moving to Colorado Springs, Colorado to be able to train at the World Arena.

At the 2021 CS Nebelhorn Trophy, Frank attempted but failed to qualify for the 2022 Winter Olympics, placing twenty-fourth overall. Her results allowed her to qualify for the 2022 Four Continents Championships.

In October, Frank placed eighteenth at the Finlandia Trophy, becoming the Philippines' highest scorer in the short program, free skate, and overall for a female skater. She scored 53.30 points in the short program and 94.79 points in the free skate for a total of 148.09 points. As a result, she broke the national record previously held by Alisson Perticheto, who had posted an overall score of 139.70 at the 2019 ISU Challenger Series Warsaw Cup. Frank then ranked fifth at the 2021 Tallinn Trophy the following month.

In January, Frank participated at the 2022 Four Continents Championships in Tallinn, Estonia, where she placed sixteenth overall. She finished twenty-second at the 2022 World Junior Championships to end the season. She shortly followed the victory with her first national title at the 2022 Philippine Figure Skating Championships.

At the 2023 World Junior Championships, Frank ranked forty-first in the short program. Since she did not place in the top twenty-fourth of the competition, she was not able to qualify for the free skate.

Personal life Adrian Tongko is Frank's uncle who is a snowboarder.
