Dinu began fencing at age 11 after coaches from different sports did a presentation at her school.[1] Her first coaches were Dumitru Popescu and Radu Mitrăchioiu.[1] She took part in her first national championship at age 15; she was defeated in the final by Ana Maria Brânză, with whom she would later fence for Romania.[1]
In January 2015 Dinu announced she would come back to competition, this time as a member of CS Dinamo București.[5] In May she won a bronze medal in the Romanian national championship and reached the quarter-finals at the Rio de Janeiro Grand Prix.
