In 2006, Mullin represented a Mayo Women's Football League team which won the 2006 FAI Women's Cup. She competed in the football event at the 2007 Summer Universiade, and so was unavailable to play for the Mayo Ladies team in the 2007–08 UEFA Women's Cup.

She scored in the 2013 FAI Women's Cup Final; Castlebar Celtic lost the match 3–2 to Raheny United. A persistent ankle injury forced Mullin's retirement from playing after the 2013–14 season.

In 2012, Mullin made her first appearance for the Republic of Ireland women's national football team in an Algarve Cup match against Hungary.
