Career
Ximenes began swimming at the age of 14 in her hometown of Baucau, when a group from FINA came to teach local children in a hotel pool. She has competed in Swimming World Championships in 2017, 2018, and 2019. In 2018 she became the first swimmer from Timor-Leste to compete at the Asian Games. She has yet to advance past the heats in international competition. During the COVID-19 pandemic, pools were closed and Ximenes instead swam in the sea until flooding outbreaks prevented this.
