2011–14: Success at the J.O. Level
Thomas commenced gymnastics training in 2008, at the age of 7 – a reltatively late start for an elite-level gymnast. In 2011, training at Skyline Gymnastics in York, she was the Pennsylvania state champion for Level 7 in the all-around and on all four pieces. As a result, she skipped Level 8 to compete as a Level 9 gymnast, placing second at the 2012 Regionals. At the 2012 Level 9 Eastern Championship in Maryland, she was fourth in the all-around; she competed against future teammate Sydney Johnson-Scharpf.
For the 2013 season, Thomas moved to Artistic Sports Academy Plus (ASAP) in Harrisburg, Pennsylvania, and moved up to Level 10; the highest level of the USAG program. She was third at States, ninth at Regionals and, as a result, qualified to the J.O. NIT competition. At the competition, held in Minneapolis, Minnesota, Thomas finished fourth in the all-around and was the National Champion on floor.
In 2014, following her move to Prestige Gymnastics in Lancaster, she only competed three events at the Pennsylvania State Championships.
2015–present: Move to the Elite ranks
In February 2015, Thomas qualified to Junior International Elite status through her performance in the Elite Qualifier session of the WOGA Classic.
