Bouaraguia began skating in 2006 at Centre Gadbois in Montreal.

At Junior Worlds, Bronsard/Bouaragauia were eighth after the rhythm dance, but after an 11th-place finish in the free dance, fell to ninth overall.

Prior to the event, the team received praise from Canadian Olympic champion and former Gadbois training teammate Tessa Virtue, who called them her "favourites" and part of the future of Canadian ice dance.

Bouaraguia began competing with Emmy Bronsard in ice dance in 2014.

They are the 2016 Québec Sectionals juvenile silver medalists.

During the 2016–17 season, Bronsard/Bouaraguia won pre-novice silver at the 2017 Skate Canada Challenge.

After taking the 2017–18 season off to concentrate on singles, Bronsard/Bouaraguia returned to ice dance during the 2018–19 season.

They bypassed competing in novices and skipped directly from pre-novice to junior.

Bronsard/Bouaraguia made their junior international debut on the Junior Grand Prix, placing fourth in the Czech Republic and sixth in Armenia.

He originally competed in men's singles and placed sixth on the novice level at the 2018 Canadian Championships.

At the event, Bouaraguia was the only novice man to attempt a triple Axel jump.

They then won silver at the 2019 Québec Sectionals held in November 2018.

At the 2019 Skate Canada Challenge, Bronsard/Bouaraguia were fourth.

They ended their season with a sixth-place finish at the 2019 Canadian Championships.

Bronsard/Bouaraguia opened their season at the 2019 Lake Placid Ice Dance International, where they won silver behind Canadian teammates Nadiia Bashynska / Peter Beaumont.

Bronsard/Bouaraguia went on to win bronze at their second event, 2019 JGP Croatia.

On winning the medal, they said, "we are happy, but we made a few mistakes and that encourages us to work even harder."

Between the JGP series and Sectionals, they made tweaks to their free dance choreography.

Bronsard/Bouaraguia were fourth at the 2020 Skate Canada Challenge.

Although they had hoped to compete at the 2020 Winter Youth Olympics in January, they were not chosen and instead competed at the 2020 Canadian Championships.

At the Championships, Bronsard/Bouaraguia won their first junior national title ahead of Bashynska/Beaumont and Olivia McIsaac / Corey Circelli.

At the 2020 Bavarian Open in February, Bronsard/Bouaraguia won the silver medal behind Americans Avonley Nguyen / Vadym Kolesnik.

Alongside Natalie D'Alessandro / Bruce Waddell and Miku Makita / Tyler Gunara, they earned a spot on the 2020 World Junior Championships team due to their being among the top three Canadian junior ice dance teams at the event.

Due to the COVID-19 pandemic, the 2020–21 ISU Junior Grand Prix, where Bronsard/Bouaraguia would have competed, was cancelled.

They later withdrew from the virtual Skate Canada Challenge and the 2021 Canadian Championships were also cancelled.

Bronsard/Bouaraguia participated at a national team camp in early July before they announced their split on July 30, 2021.
