A three-time Canadian national champion, Osmond competed internationally at the senior level from 2012 to 2018, winning three Olympic medals, two World Championship medals, and one Grand Prix Final medal.

As part of the 2014 Canadian Olympic team, Osmond won a silver medal in the team event. After being sidelined by injury and struggling to return to competitive form, Osmond reclaimed her Canadian title in 2017 and won silver at the 2017 World Championships. The following season, she stood on the podium at every event she entered, winning the bronze medal at the 2018 Winter Olympics and the 2017–18 Grand Prix Final, ands taking gold at the 2018 World Championships. She also won Olympic gold as part of the Canadian team in the 2018 Olympic team event. Osmond then retired from competition.
context_section_description: Osmond trained in southern California for about two weeks in August 2013 under the guidance of Walia and Frank Carroll. Due to a stress reaction in her left ankle, she was off the ice for most of September 2013. In late October, she competed at the 2013 Skate Canada International, placing fifth in the short program, but pulled out before the free skate due to a torn hamstring in her right leg. She also withdrew from the 2013 Rostelecom Cup but returned to competition at the 2014 Skate Canada Challenge. At the 2014 Canadian Championships, she placed first in both segments and repeated as national champion.
  In February 2014, Osmond represented Canada at the Winter Olympics in Sochi. Osmond skated in both segments of the team event, placing fifth in both, and contributing to Canada's silver medal.  She then competed in the individual ladies' singles event and finished thirteenth.  She later referred to her performance in the individual event as "probably my worst short program all year."  In March, she placed eleventh at the 2014 World Championships in Saitama, Japan.
