She first teamed up with Teixeira in 2007, so their team only had a year's worth of experience when they competed at the 2008 Summer Olympics. The Brazilian duet pair did not reach the final, finishing in 13th place.

At the 2009 World Aquatic Championships, the pair made the final, finishing in 11th.

At the 2012 Olympics, the team of Teixeria and Figueria missed the final by only 0.3 points. Their technical routine costumes were in the style of Romero Brito and their music was by Arnaldo Antunes. The team also won gold at the South American Synchronised Swimming Championships.
