Wranå is a two-time medallist at the world junior championships claiming gold in 2017 and silver in 2018. The team’s gold-medal victory earned them a spot in the 2017 Champions Cup in Calgary where they made their Pinty’s Grand Slam of Curling debut.

Wranå has also won a pair of medals at the Winter Universiade taking gold in 2019 and bronze in 2017. She is the younger sister of Team Edin second Rasmus Wranå.
