East made her debut in the opening round of the 2022 AFLW season. In her second game, she was praised for her efforts early in the game, and was awarded 5 votes in the AFL Coaches Association AFLW Champion Player of the Year award.[1] She was nominated for the 2022 AFL Women's Rising Star award after performing well in round 9, when a depleted Fremantle side due to Covid-19 Health and Safety protocols, was beaten by a record margin by Melbourne.[2]

A former basketballer from Manjimup, her father, Heath, also played football, for East Perth in the West Australian Football League.[3]
