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.[3] The Brazilian duet pair did not reach the final, finishing in 13th place.[3][4]

At the 2009 World Aquatic Championships, the pair made the final, finishing in 11th.[5]

At the 2012 Olympics, the team of Teixeria and Figueria missed the final by only 0.3 points.[6] Their technical routine costumes were in the style of Romero Brito and their music was by Arnaldo Antunes.[4] The team also won gold at the South American Synchronised Swimming Championships.[4]
