Sinmon became age-eligible for senior international competitions in 2014.[4] She won a bronze medal in the all-around at the 2014 South American Games in addition to helping Brazil win team gold.[5][6] She helped the Brazilian team win a silver medal behind the United States at the 2014 Pan American Championships, where she also won a bronze medal on the balance beam.[7] She was then selected for the 2014 World Championships team, where Brazil finished 16th in the qualification round.[8]

Sinmon began the 2015 season at the Ljubljana World Challenge Cup, where she won a bronze medal on the balance beam.[9][10] She was then selected to represent Brazil at the 2015 Pan American Games,[5] helping the team win the bronze medal.[11] Individually, she advanced into the balance beam final and finished fourth.[4] She tore her ACL in the lead-up to the 2015 World Championships and was unable to compete.[12]

Sinmon returned to competition at the 2016 Varna World Challenge Cup.[12] She only competed on the uneven bars and did not advance beyond the qualifications.[13] She was not selected for Brazil's 2016 Olympic team.[14] She announced her retirement from the sport in October 2017, citing challenges returning to competition after her knee injury.[4]
