In the fall of 2019, Voigt began attending Stanstead College, an independent day and boarding school in Stanstead, Quebec, Canada, known for its varsity ice hockey program. [1] She immediately began playing with the Stanstead Spartans girls' varsity ice hockey program in the North American Prep Hockey Association (NAPHA).

[7] [8] She led the team in scoring, netting two of Germany's three goals in the tournament – the third goal was scored by Katharina Häckelsmiller. [9]

Following the March 2020 to July 2021 period during which women's international ice hockey play was halted due to the COVID-19 pandemic, Voigt made her debut with the German senior national team at the 2021 IIHF Women's World Championship in Calgary, Canada.
