She represented her nation France in the 200 m butterfly at the 2008 Summer Olympics, and has been a member of Canet 66 in Canet-en-Roussillon throughout her swimming career under the tutelage of her coach Philippe Lucas.

Rousseau competed as a lone French swimmer in the women's 200 m butterfly at the 2008 Summer Olympics in Beijing. Leading up to the Games, she topped the field with a personal best of 2:10.07 to eclipse both the nation's own Olympic standard and the FINA A-cut (2:10.84) at the French Championships in Dunkirk. Swimming on the far outside in heat three, Rousseau chased the rest of the swimmers throughout the race to round out the field with a seventh-place time in 2:13.12. Rousseau failed to advance to the semifinals, as she placed twenty-eighth overall in the prelims.

Rousseau is a very successful World Games athlete. In 2013, she won four gold medals and one bronze in life saving. In 2017, she won another gold medal in lifesaving.
