Skarupa played under-19 hockey for the Washington Pride of the Junior Women's Hockey League. In both her junior and senior years of high school, she captained the team and won the Liz Turgeon Player of the Year award.[2]

After graduating from high school, Skarupa joined Boston College, where both her parents had studied.[3][4] Across four seasons in the NCAA, she scored 244 points in 144 games, the second highest scorer in Boston College history, for both men and women.[5] She was a finalist for the Patty Kazmaier Memorial Award in both 2015 and 2016.[2]

Skarupa was drafted fifth overall, in the second round of the 2015 NWHL Draft by the New York Riveters. On April 26, 2016, Skarupa's signing rights were traded to the Connecticut Whale in exchange for Michelle Picard.[6][7]

Across three seasons in the National Women's Hockey League (NWHL), Skarupa would put up 45 points in 34 games, being named to the 2017 NWHL All-Star Game.[8]

In May 2019, Skarupa joined the Professional Women's Hockey Players Association (PWHPA) boycott of the NWHL. A few months later, she was hired as a hockey ambassador with the Washington Capitals of the NHL.[9] She played at PWHPA events from 2020 to 2023.[10]

At the 2012 U18 Championship, Skarupa set a single-tournament record of 11 goals.[14] She and Team USA would earn the silver medal.[2]
