Early years[edit]
Manni began learning to skate in 1998.[1] Early in her career, she represented Italy in ladies' singles, coached by Franca Bianconi and Karel Fajfr.[4] From 2010 to 2012, she competed at three ISU Junior Grand Prix events.[5]
Manni's first ice dancing partner was Andrea Fabbri.[4] In 2014, she teamed up with Benjamin Naggiar to compete for Italy in senior ice dancing. The two placed tenth at the 2014 International Cup of Nice in October and seventh at the Italian Championships a couple of months later. They were coached by Valter Rizzo and Brunilde Bianchi in Sesto San Giovanni.[6]
During the 2015–16 season, Manni represented Italy with Saverio Giacomelli. The two appeared at four internationals, including two ISU Challenger Series events.

In 2016, Manni teamed up with Swiss ice dancer Carlo Röthlisberger to compete for Switzerland. They decided to train in Milan, coached by Roberto Pelizzola.[7] Making their international debut, the duo placed 14th at the 2016 CS Tallinn Trophy in November. They placed 25th at the 2017 European Championships in Ostrava, Czech Republic.
