In 2021, she won one of the bronze medals in her event at the 2021 Judo Grand Slam Antalya held in Antalya, Turkey.[9]

Beauchemin-Pinard competed as part of Canada's 2020 Olympic team in Tokyo.[10] She won all her matches in the under-63 kg class before losing to world champion and eventual Olympic champion Clarisse Agbegnenou in the semifinals. Beauchemin-Pinard then won the bronze medal defeating Anriquelis Barrios by waza-ari in extra time.[2][11] After her victory she said that "I remember going to Rio in 2016 and leaving so disappointed with my performance. I said to myself, I want to go to Tokyo, win a medal and perform there. And I did it."[2]
