Reid attended the University of Virginia, where she made 83 appearances and scored two goals. Her senior year, she started all 21 games, scored a golden goal at No. 2 West Virginia, and had two game-winning assists. Also in her senior year, she was named to the All-ACC second team and the ACC Women's Soccer All-Academic team.




Professional career


After losing her father, David, in her senior year of college, Reid declined to participate in the 2018 NWSL College Draft. Having talked about becoming a firefighter with her father before his passing, she decided to start volunteering at a local fire department in Virginia. She then moved back to the San Francisco Bay Area to pursue a career as an emergency medical technician. While interning as a paramedic, Reid and her coworkers often played pickup soccer inside the fire station, and she rediscovered her love for the sport.
Reid rejoined her old club team, Lamorinda SC, which had just entered the semipro WPSL, and played seven of the team's eight games. From there, the Lamorinda staff and her college coach, Steve Swanson, began looking for professional playing opportunities, and she landed a training spot with FC Thy-Thisted Q in the Danish Kvindaeligaen. After San Diego Wave FC placed her on their discovery list, she joined their preseason training camp, but did not make the roster. She then joined Angel City for their preseason on an invitation from Head Coach Freya Coombe and earned a professional contract.

After missing the 2022 NWSL Challenge Cup due to a concussion, Reid made her professional debut for Angel City on April 17 during a 2–1 loss to OL Reign. She went on to play every minute of the club's inaugural season and was named the club's first Iron Woman. Angel City finished their first season in eighth place with a 8–9–5 record.
Reid returned with Angel City for the 2023 season and was a starting defender in eight of the nine games she played, playing a less significant role with the return of teammate Sarah Gorden from injury. Angel City finished in fifth place during the regular season and advanced to the playoffs for the first time where they were eliminated by OL Reign in the quarter final match.
On January 5, 2024 it was announced Angel City would re-sign Reid and extend her contract to 2025. On April 13, 2024, Reid played her first match of 2024 season against Chicago Red Stars to help Angel City clinch their first win and clean sheet of the season in a 0–1 victory. On August 18, 2024, Reid scored her first goal for Angel City in a friendly against Liga MX Femenil team FC Juárez which finished as a 7–0 win. Reid made her 50th NWSL regular-season appearance with Angel City on September 27, 2024, in a home match against Washington Spirit.




International career


Reid received her first call-up to the Canada national team as a training player ahead of the 2024 CONCACAF W Gold Cup.
