In 2009, they appeared at two ISU Junior Grand Prix events, placing 13th and 18th. In 2010, the two switched to ice dancing. In the 2011–12 season, the Kaliszeks received two JGP assignments, finishing 11th at both, and debuted on the senior level at the Pavel Roman Memorial, where they placed fifth. They were sent to the 2012 World Junior Championships in Minsk, Belarus but were eliminated after the preliminary round.
