Weber enrolled at University of Miami in 2015 and played with Miami Hurricanes women's golf. As a freshman, she tied for second behind Virginia Elena Carta at the 2016 NCAA Championship in Eugene, Oregon, finishing with a four-round total of 280 (−8). [4]

In 2016, she lost the final of the British Ladies Amateur to Julia Engström on the 19th hole. [5]
