Fifth at the 2016 Russian Junior Championships (7th in the short dance, 4th in the free), the two were named in Russia's team to the 2016 Winter Youth Olympics in Hamar. Ranked second in the short dance and third in the free, they were awarded the bronze medal in the ice dancing event in Norway.[5] They won gold in the mixed NOC team event.[6]
