Career
Partnership with Buckland
Smart teamed up with Joseph Buckland in 2010.[1] They made their JGP debut in autumn 2011, ranking 13th in Austria and 12th in Estonia. They came in 17th at their first World Junior Championships, held in Minsk in March 2012. In the 2012–13 season, the duo missed the JGP series and finished 22nd at the 2013 World Junior Championships in Milan.
In 2013–14, Smart/Buckland placed seventh at both of their JGP assignments, Poland and the Czech Republic, and finished 10th at the 2014 World Junior Championships in Sofia, Bulgaria.
Smart/Buckland moved up to the senior level in the 2014–15 season. In October 2014, they placed fourth at the Ondrej Nepela Trophy, an ISU Challenger Series event. In November, they won silver medals at the International Cup of Nice and NRW Trophy before taking the British national title in the absence of Penny Coomes / Nicholas Buckland. Smart/Buckland withdrew from the 2015 European Championships before the short dance, Buckland having fallen ill with gastroenteritis.[2][3] The duo went on to place 27th at the 2015 World Championships in Shanghai, China. Following that season, they split.
Partnership with Díaz
On 13 December 2015, it was announced that Smart had teamed up with Spanish ice dancer, Adrià Díaz, and that she would like skate for Spain with him. On 15 January 2016, Smart announced that the Skating Association of Great Britain had released her, and that she and Díaz would train in Montreal under Marie-France Dubreuil, Patrice Lauzon, and Romain Haguenauer.[4]
