She'll not have any experience (or appreciable levels) in the Disciplines of War until someone teaches her how to fight ICly.
To a larger point, I don't think it's necessary to only have one IC class for a character. People in real life are often good at a number of things, and with PCs being "special" and heroic in a variety of ways, it makes sense that they'll have multiple areas of expertise as well. The important thing is to have a narrative reason why your character has such abilities and ensure that the breadth of expertise doesn't turn into a pretext for bad behavior (i.e., godmoding).
Pretty much all this for my character as well. In the end I'll likely focus primarily on one job/class the most, but I think sticking with the idea that she is a "caster" or "magically inclined" is a reasonable way to have a couple IC skill sets. If I want to do DoW classes then I'll likely roll another character for that. To me there is a bit of a personality difference required for DoW or DoM.
