Lefroy was a rower in high school, and in 2016 was recruited by Gordon Marcks, coach for the Australian Paralympic Rowing Team.[1]
She competed for Australia at the 2016 Summer Paralympics in Legs, Trunk and Arms (LTA) mixed coxed four rowing, alongside Jeremy McGrath, Kathleen Murdoch, Brock Ingram, and Josephine Burnand. The five rowers were Australia's LTA team to qualify in pararowing.[4] The team came in fourth in their heat, third in their repechage heat, and sixth overall.[1]

With her degrees in psychology, Lefroy has worked in both public and private practice, specializing in sexuality and disability, abuse and trauma, and adolescent and early adulthood issues.[3] As of 2016[update], she was a clinical psychologist living in Perth.[1]
