She is a veteran of the Melbourne International Comedy Festival and has performed at the Melbourne Fringe Festival.
Hickey got her start in radio hosting 3RRR's all-female sports show The Downlow, and her popularity saw the station appoint her as co-host of the Breakfasters in 2016. On television, she has appeared on The Project, Tonightly with Tom Ballard, Have You Been Paying Attention? and Hughesy, We Have a Problem. In 2019, she starred as Dr Stephanie Huddleston in the eight-part comedy series Metro Sexual on the Nine Network, reprising the role in 2021.
