Ward began modeling at the age of 13, leaving school and moving to New York City to do so. She began acting several years later. She appeared in the soap opera All My Children in 1995, and in NBC's teen drama Malibu Shores, produced by Aaron Spelling.

In late 1996, Ward began playing virginal Meg Cummings on Spelling's soap opera Sunset Beach,[1] which aired from 1997 to 1999. In 1999 she turned to films, and starred as the psychotic Brittany Foster in the 2000 teen thriller The In Crowd.

She has also acted in numerous other direct-to-DVD movies, and has made guest appearances in various TV shows, most notably Friends.

In 2009, she landed the role Chloe Kmetko, mother of a young gymnast, on the ABC Family drama series Make It or Break It. She was part of the main cast during the show's first two seasons.
