After playing futsal for three years at school, 16-year-old Gislaine attended a trial with São José Esporte Clube.

[2] After 13 years at São José, in which she won three Copa Libertadores Femenina titles and the 2014 International Women's Club Championship, Gislaine transferred to Corinthians in January 2018.

[10] Gislaine was part of the Brazil under-20 selection at the 2008 FIFA U-20 Women's World Cup.

But a broken hand meant that she had to withdraw from selection, to be replaced by Andréia Rosa.

[12] She won a first cap for Brazil in September 2013, in a 1–0 win over New Zealand at the 2013 Valais Women's Cup.
