Club career
Kielland hails from Bærum and started her youth career in Fossum IF before going on to the largest club in the area, Stabæk.[1] She made a breakthrough for Stabæk in the 2020 First Division, and was a key player from the 2021 Toppserien onward. After finishing school at the Norwegian School of Elite Sport in 2021, she started a higher education in Oslo to be able to remain in Stabæk.[2][3]
She was bought by SK Brann Kvinner in the summer of 2023 on a 3,5 year contract. Not having turned 21 years old, she amassed 80 league matches for Stabæk.[4] During Brann's successful 2023–24 Champions League run, Kielland scored against Glasgow in the qualifying rounds[5] as well as an equalizer against St. Pölten during the group stage.[6]
International career
In October 2023, Kielland was called up for Norway for the first time.[7] She remained unused then, but not long after, she made her full international debut against Croatia, being substituted in at half time.[8]
Personal life
While at Stabæk, she entered a relationship with men's player Oliver Valaker Edvardsen.[9]
