Williams trains four hours a day with coach Andrei Kriukov. She has all five triple jumps (Salchow, toe loop, loop, flip, and Lutz) since Worlds 2010. She won the bronze medal at the 2012 Golden Spin of Zagreb.

At the 2010 World Junior Championships, Williams became the third skater in any discipline to represent Brazil at the event. Her highest Junior Worlds placement was 16th in 2012.

In September 2013, Williams competed at the Nebelhorn Trophy, the final qualifying competition for the 2014 Winter Olympics in Sochi. She placed 8th in the short program and 14th in the free skate, finishing 12th overall. As a result of her placement, Brazil received one of the six remaining spots for countries which had not previously qualified for a ladies' entry. This was the first ever ladies' figure skating Olympics entry for Brazil. Williams finished in last place (30th) at the Olympic contest.

In the 2016-2017 season, Williams earned the first gold medal for a Brazilian skater in an international competition at the 2017 Sofia Trophy.

In 2017, she placed 5th overall at Nebelhorn to once again qualify for the 2018 Winter Olympics. Also in 2017 she placed 2nd at Volvo Open Cup, competition held in Riga, Latvia.

During the Olympic tournament, Williams made history by finishing 17th in the short program, enough to become the first Brazilian and South American to ever take part in the skating final. She placed 24th in the Free Skate and placed 24th overall.

She also became the first Brazilian and South American female skater to ever advance to the final segment of a senior World Championship at 2019 Worlds in Japan. She placed 24th in the short and in the free, finishing 24th overall.

In 2021, Williams failed to qualify to the Olympic Games for a third time after withdrawing from the free skating at Nebelhorn, where she placed 32nd after the short program. Later, she claimed her foot had become injured during the off season and it was taking a long time to heal. This was her last international competition, as she announced her retirement plans shortly after. She stated her wish was that the last competition of her career would be the 2021 Brazilian Nationals, but she didn't manage to recover in time and withdrew her entry.
