Varnes grew up in Manitoba, where she won the 2001 Manitoba Juvenile Provincial Championship. As a junior curler, she played in three provincial junior championships as a skip. Her first season on the World Curling Tour was 2005–06. That season, she was the youngest skip at the 2006 Manitoba Scotties Tournament of Hearts where she led her Stonewall Curling Club rink to a 3–4 record. After the season she joined the Linda Stewart rink for one season. The team made it to the 2007 Manitoba Scotties, finishing with a 4–3 record. After one more season as a skip in Manitoba, Varnes moved to Ottawa in 2008.

In 2015, Varnes and her team of Melissa Gannon, Erin Macaulay and Rebecca Wichers-Schreur qualified for their first Ontario Scotties Tournament of Hearts. In 2016, Varnes moved back to her home province of Manitoba where she joined the Briane Meilleur rink at Third.
