She attended Pine Crest School in Fort Lauderdale, Florida, and trained for the swim club under head coach Jay Fitzgerald.

She posted a FINA A-standard of 2:13.01 (200 m butterfly) from the European Championships in Madrid, Spain, allowing her to include 200 and 400 m freestyle in her event line-up.

[11][12] In her final event, 200 m butterfly, Stojanovska ended her Olympic run with a twenty-sixth-place effort, failing to reach the semifinals for the fifth straight time since 2000.

Swimming in heat three, she rounded out a field of eight swimmers to last place with a time of 2:16.51, nearly four seconds off the national record held by Mirjana Boševska.
