Heilferty attended Boston University, where she played for the Boston University Terriers women's soccer team.

Club career

Heilferty, a fan of the Washington Spirit as a child, trained with the team during the COVID-19 pandemic in 2020. The Spirit selected Heilferty with the 19th-overall pick in the 2021 NWSL Draft.[1] She was the first Boston University player to be drafted into the NWSL.[6]
