Among her earliest wins came during the 2011 American Classic where she was declared the champion. This would lead to her selection in the junior US national team that same year. In 2012, she became part of the senior team as well and was instrumental in helping the U.S. team to win the City of Jesolo Trophy. She would repeat the same result in the same event two years later in 2014 as well.

That same year Skinner also competed in the 2014 World Championships in China where would again win gold. Another major tournament Skinner competed in was the 2016 U.S. National Championships where she won a silver medal on vault. So far in her career, she has already been able to win 11 medals in the U.S. National Championships.

However, in 2016, she expressed disappointment on not being selected for the 2016 Olympics even after finishing fourth in the U.S. Olympic Trials. Yet Skinner continued to improve upon her performances and skills. During the NCAA championships, she would finish seventh.

In 2019, Skinner would again start her campaign on making it to the 2020 Olympics. She had great momentum on her side with her performance in the 2019 U.S. Classic leading to the second-highest single vault score recorded.

In the National Championships that same year, Skinner did have some fallbacks as she would end in ninth place on the first day because of a fall. Yet, overall she was able to finish strong and this led to her qualification in the Olympic Trials where she managed to finish in the 5^th position. This has helped her earn a spot in the upcoming Tokyo Olympics.
