At her first World Cup since before last year's Winter Olympics in Vancouver, she set the 13th quickest time to easily make it into the top 16.
In Friday's quarter-finals, Zoe will be up against Maria Ramberger of Austria, Emilie Aubry of Switzerland and Carle Brenneman of Canada.
The top two will go forward to the semi-finals.
