She was one of the founders of the first theatre group to produce affordable pieces to disabled people, called Os Inclusos e os Sisos – Mobilisation Theatre for Diversity.

In terms of performance, Werneck stands out for her skillful improvisation and is considered one of the most well known comedic performers in Brazil.

In 2013, she received the nickname "Queen of Improvisation" by iG and in 2014, she won the title of "Best Breakthrough" in a poll conducted by Folha de S.Paulo with Rede Globo viewers. In addition, she was named "Woman of the Year" by the Brazilian edition of men's magazine GQ and became the first comedian to star in a cosmetic advert when appearing for L'Oréal. In May 2016, magazine Capricho named her the "Queen of Comedy".

She began her acting studies at the age of 9 and subsequently appeared in her first theatrical performance at 11. Her debut in a televised program occurred in 2008, when she joined the cast of Dilemas de Irene. Two years later, she joined the team of Quinta Categoria, formerly MTV Brasil, and participated in several other station's programs between 2010 and 2012.

In 2004 Werneck started, with her university classmates, a theatre group called "Os Inclusos e os sisos"- Theatre Mobilisation for Diversity, which was the first Brazilian group to create a totally accessible play for disabled people.
