At the 2012 Summer Olympics, she lost her first round match against Romy Tarangul.[2]

Four years later, in Rio at the 2016 Summer Olympics, she won a bronze medal. She beat Ecaterina Guica before losing to Misato Nakamura. Because Nakamura reached the semi-finals, Kuziutina was entered into the repechage. There she beat Christianne Legentil and then beat Ma Yingnan in her bronze medal match.[2]
