Club career

Camila debuted for Kindermann of Santa Catarina in 2012, then joined rivals Ferroviária for the 2015 Copa do Brasil.

She was signed by Houston Dash in May 2015.[3] The Dash waived her in January 2016.[4]

On 19 December 2016, the Orlando Pride announced that they had signed Camila for the 2017 season.[5] On 30 September 2017 Camila suffered a torn ACL and MCL sprain in her right knee during Orlando's final regular season game in North Carolina. As a result she missed Orlando's playoff game the following week.[6] Camila made her first appearance of the 2018 season following recovery from injury on 7 July against the Washington Spirit.[7]

In 2018, Camila spent the NWSL offseason on loan with Iranduba in Brazil. She played in all 5 of the team's Copa Libertadores matches as they finished third in their inaugural season in the competition.[8]

During the 2019–20 NWSL offseason, Camila joined the Australian W-League for the first time, signing a loan deal with Canberra United.[9] She made her debut for the team in the season opener on 17 November 2019, registering an assist in a 2–0 win over Perth Glory before being named to the W-League team of the week.[10] Camila played in the first 10 games of Canberra's season before suffering an MCL injury in training, ruling her out for the rest of the campaign.[11]

International career

At the 2014 FIFA U-20 Women's World Cup in Canada, Camila made three appearances for Brazil and served one assist.
