She competed on both the junior and senior levels until the end of the 2001–02 season. Her best result in five appearances at the World Junior Championships was 15th in 2002.
Luca placed 23rd at the 2002 Winter Olympics in Salt Lake City, Utah, United States. She underwent knee surgery in September 2003 and missed the 2003–04 season as a result.[1]
Luca finished a career-best 15th at the 2005 European Championships. A back injury caused her to withdraw from the 2006 European Championships during the short program.[1] She placed 26th at her second Olympics, in Turin.[2]
Luca last competed at the 2009 World Championships.
Now known as Roxana Hartmann, she works as a figure skating coach and choreographer in southern Germany.[3][4]
