Career
Early years
As a singles skater, Ramanauskaitė won the Lithuanian national junior title in 2017–2018 and the senior title in 2019. She represented Lithuania at three ISU Championships — the 2018 World Junior Championships, 2019 World Junior Championships, and 2019 European Championships.
Partnership with Kizala
In 2020, Ramanauskaitė teamed up with Deividas Kizala Paulina to compete in senior ice dancing. The two made their international debut in December 2020, at the Winter Star in Minsk, Belarus.
Although Allison Reed / Saulius Ambrulevičius qualified a spot for Lithuania in ice dancing at the 2022 Winter Olympics, Reed's application for Lithuanian citizenship was unsuccessful.[1] Following this decision, Ramanauskaitė/Kizala were nominated to fill the spot and placed 23rd at the Olympics.
