Thaisa was a late substitute in Tyresö's 4–3 2014 UEFA Women's Champions League Final defeat by Wolfsburg.[6] Shortly afterwards Tyresö were declared insolvent and kicked out of the 2014 Damallsvenskan season, expunging all their results and making all their players free agents.[7]

On December 13, 2017 she signed with Sky Blue FC in the NWSL.[8] After making eight appearances with the club she was released on July 25, 2018 so she could pursue overseas opportunities.[9]

Switched to newly formed A.C. Milan Women in the Seria A for the 2018–19 season.[10] On 26 July 2019, Thaisa joined CD Tacón in the Spanish Primera División.[11]

Thaisa made her senior debut for Brazil in September 2013, in a 1–0 defeat by New Zealand in Châtel-Saint-Denis, Switzerland.[12] She scored her first national team goal in Brazil's 2–0 win over Chile at the 2013 Torneio Internacional de Brasília de Futebol Feminino.[13]
