    Adams is the Micronesian record holder in the short course 50 and 100 metres breaststroke events,[3] as well as the standard course 100 metres breaststroke and freestyle events.[4] In Hawaii, she trains at the Kona Aquatics Club.[3]

    Adams competed at the 2018 Oceania Swimming Championships, finishing last in the 50 metres breaststroke event. She was also part of the Micronesian team that finished last in the 4 × 100 metres freestyle relay.[5] At the 2018 FINA World Swimming Championships (25 m), she set a national record of 37.00 seconds in the 50 metres breaststroke event, and also competed in the 100 metres breaststroke competition.[2] She competed in the 100 metre breastroke event at the 2019 World Aquatics Championships, finishing 53rd out of 55 in the heats.[6]

    Adams was given a wildcard place for the 100 metre breaststroke event at the delayed 2020 Summer Olympics,[3] competing for the Federated States of Micronesia.[7] She was Micronesia's flag bearer at the Games' opening ceremony.[3][4] After arriving in Tokyo, Adams trained with swimmers from Guam.[8] At the Games, Adams finished fourth in her heat,[9] and 41st overall.[10] She did not qualify for the semi-finals of the competition, as only the top 16 finishers progressed.[11][1] Later in the year, she competed in the 100 metre breastroke event at the 2021 FINA World Swimming Championships (25 m). She went out in the heats.[12]
