Having previously represented the United States, Frank began to compete for the Philippines in 2021. At the 2021 CS Nebelhorn Trophy, Frank attempted but failed to qualify for the 2022 Winter Olympics, placing twenty-fourth overall. Her results allowed her to qualify for the 2022 Four Continents Championships. In October, Frank placed eighteenth at the Finlandia Trophy, becoming the Philippines' highest scorer in the short program, free skate, and overall for a female skater. She scored 53.30 points in the short program and 94.79 points in the free skate for a total of 148.09 points. As a result, she broke the national record previously held by Alisson Perticheto, who had posted an overall score of 139.70 at the 2019 ISU Challenger Series Warsaw Cup. Frank then ranked fifth at the 2021 Tallinn Trophy the following month. Competing at the junior level, Frank qualified for the 2022 World Junior Figure Skating Championships after finishing thirteenth at the 15th Santa Claus Cup in Hungary. In January, Frank participated at the  2022 Four Continents Championships in Tallinn, Estonia, where she placed sixteenth overall. She finished twenty-second at the 2022 World Junior Championships to end the season. 2022–2023 season
Frank began the season by competing at the senior-level 2022 Philadelphia Summer International, where she placed tenth overall. She then participated in the 2022 U.S. Classic, finishing eleventh in the event. Making her Junior Grand Prix (JGP) debut at the  2022 JGP Poland I, Frank placed sixteenth. In December, Frank placed first in both the short program and free skate segments of the 2022 Asian Open Trophy in Jakarta, Indonesia, winning her first international competition. She shortly followed the victory with her first national title at the 2022 Philippine Figure Skating Championships. At the 2023 World Junior Championships, Frank ranked forty-first in the short program. Since she did not place in the top twenty-fourth of the competition, she was not able to qualify for the free skate. 2023–2024 season
