Following this experience, Simone decided to hone her artistic skills in the US, where she studied with Robert Castle, from Lee Strasberg Theatre and Film Institute, Susan Batson, Jandiz Estrada, Nancy Bishop, Michelle Danner and Bernard Hiller.
While she was at the theater, Simone was invited to be part of the cast of the series Casos e Acasos in the episode "A Fuga Arriscada, A Nova Namorada e O Recheio do Bolo" on Globo Television.
In the following year, she was invited to play Sonia in Cama de Gato, a soap opera written by Thelma Guedes and Duca Rachid, also on Globo.
In 2010, Simone played the role of Pietra, a ballet dancer, on another Globo soap opera, Caras e Bocas, written by Walcyr Carrasco.
In 2011, she played the role of Cinira, a bitter art gallery owner, in the soap opera Corações Feridos, written by Iris Abravanel.
In the same years (2011 and 2012), she gave life to Trair e Coçar É Só Começar's possessive and controlling Vera, written by Marcos Caruso.
In 2013, she finally stepped on the stage, in her own production, in the role of Izzy, the funny and irresponsible sister of Becca, played by Maria Fernanda Cândido.
Simone was invited to play "Liliane" by the author Aguinaldo Silva, and it was her first acting role in prime time at the Brazilian television channel, Rede Globo.
