Piredda began learning to skate in 2006. She was initially interested in pursuing ice hockey and would ultimately decide to switch to figure skating after being inspired by watching Italian figure skater, Paolo Bacchini, train at her skating rink. Joanna Szczypa would become her coach when she was about five years old.

Making her junior international debut, Piredda won silver at the Cup of Tyrol in February 2017. Continuing in the junior ranks, she took gold at the Dragon Trophy in February 2018 and Egna Trophy in April that same year.

In September, Piredda debuted on the ISU Junior Grand Prix series, placing thirteenth 2018 JGP Canada. She then went on to take gold on the junior level at the 2018 Halloween Cup and silver on the junior level at the 2018 Prague Cup. In December, she won the junior ladies title at the 2019 Italian Championships.

Piredda's senior international debut came in January at the 2019 Toruń Cup. She would then medal at two other senior events, taking bronze at the 2019 Dragon Trophy and the 2019 Cup of Tyrol. She was ultimately selected to represent Italy at the 2019 World Championships in Saitama, Japan. Piredea would place twenty-seventh in the short program, failing to advance to the free skate segment of the competition. She followed this event by winning bronze at the 2019 Egna Spring Trophy.
