Career

Thuvik grew up in Skärhamn, playing for the junior boys' teams of Rönnängs IK, eight kilometres away in a neighbouring town.[1] In 2016, at the age of 14, she was offered a contract with senior-club Trollhättans HC in Damtvåan. She scored 40 points in 8 games as the team earned promotion to Damettan.

Ahead of the 2018–19 season, she signed with top-flight club Göteborg HC. She scored 10 points in 36 games in her debut SDHL season, as the club finished in last but were able to keep their top-flight place after a successful relegation playoff.[2] She was named an assistant captain for Göteborg for the 2019–20 season, where she almost doubled her point production, scoring 17 points in 32 games.[3]

In the 2020 off-season, she left Göteborg to sign with Brynäs IF.[4][5]

International career

Thuvik has represented Sweden at the 2019 and 2020 IIHF World Women's U18 Championship.[6] She participated in her first senior national team camp in August 2020, being called in as a replacement for injured Hanna Olsson.[7]
