Navarro competed with Robert Shmalo early in her career.

Navarro teamed up with Brent Bommentre after a tryout in April 2005. They won the bronze medal at the 2008 U.S. Championships, and were chosen to represent the United States at the 2008 Four Continents, where they finished in 3rd, and the 2008 World Championships in Gothenburg, Sweden, where they were 12th. At the 2009 Nationals, Navarro/Bommentre again finished 3rd, but were left off the Worlds team in favor of Tanith Belbin / Benjamin Agosto, who had missed U.S. Nationals due to injury. They did compete at the 2009 Four Continents, where they finished in sixth place.

In the Olympic season, Navarro/Bommentre finished 4th at U.S. Nationals, and were not named to the Olympic team. When Belbin/Agosto ended their competitive career following the Olympics, they were selected to compete at the 2010 World Championships. They were 14th in their second Worlds appearance. Navarro/Bommentre announced their retirement from competition on May 11, 2010.

In 2011, Navarro joined the cast of Battle of the Blades for the show's third season,[http://web.icenetwork.com/news/article.jsp?ymd=20110822&content_id=23573438&vkey=ice_pressrelease Belbin, Navarro to join 'Battle of the Blades' cast] and was originally paired with the late Wade Belak.[https://www.thestar.com/sports/hockey/article/1048190--show-must-go-on-for-battle-of-the-blades Show must go on for Battle of the Blades] In the season-opening episode, Russ Courtnall was named as her partner.[http://www.cbc.ca/battle/2011/09/kim-navarro.html Kim Navarro - Battle of the Blades Bio]
