Corimberto was initially a member of the Argentine national youth team in beach handball. With this she took part in the first Pan American Beach Handball Junior Championships 2017 (U 17) and won the title with her team. It was also the qualification for the Beach Handball Junior World Championships 2017 in Flic-en-Flac on Mauritius . With her team she beat Paraguay and Croatia in the preliminary round, but lost to Hungary. Argentina beat Taiwan in the main round, then lost to the Netherlands. As third in the main round, she moved into the quarter-finals with Argentina, where China was initially defeated. In the semifinals they again lost to the Netherlands, in the game for third place they managed to win over Portugal and thus win the bronze medal. A year later, the 2018 Summer Youth Olympic Games in her home city of Buenos Aires were the highlight of the season. Beach handball replaced indoor handball for the first time and was Olympic for the first time. In the preliminary round they beat the teams from Turkey, Paraguay, Venezuela and Hong Kong. Only the last group game, again against the Netherlands, was lost. Corimberto was the most successful scorer of her team against Hong Kong with 13 points and against the Netherlands with ten points. If the games in the preliminary round were always clear issues, they got closer in the main round, all three games went to the shootout, where she was able to convert her penalties against Croatia and Taiwan. After beating Croatia, they lost to the team from Hungary and then won very close against Taiwan. In the game against Taiwan, Corimberto was the top scorer of her team with 12 points for the third time in the course of the tournament. As the third-placed team in the main round, they faced one of the two feared opponents Hungary. Although the Hungarians even scored one point more, the Argentines happily won a hard-fought game in the shootout. Together with Gisella Bonomi , Cormiberto scored the most of her team with ten points and also converted her penalty. In the final, the Argentines met Croatia again and defeated them with 2-0 sets. Corimberto won the first Olympic gold medal in beach handball with Argentina. After Bonomi and Caterina Benedetti , she was the third-best scorer of her team in the tournament with 67 points. At the Pan-American Beach Handball Junior Championships 2019 , she won the silver medal with the Argentine selection.

Then Corimberto moved up to the national beach handball team of Argentina together with her long-time colleagues in the junior national team Carolina Ponce , Zoe Turnes , Caterina Benedetti and Gisella Bonomi . The first international championships were the South American Beach Games 2019 in Rosario . In the preliminary round, Paraguay , Chile and Peru were beaten and the Argentines went to the semi-finals as first in the table. There Venezuela was defeated 2-0. In the final, Brazil played one of the strongest teams in the world. The final was fiercely competitive and continued right up to the shootout. Argentina prevailed there. It was her first international women's title. In the further course of the year Corimberto was also part of the Argentine squad for the Central and South American Championships in Beach Handball 2019 in Maricá in Brazil. With Gisella Bonomi, Lucila Balsas and Zoe Turnes, almost half of the team was recruited from players who had won gold at the Youth Olympic Games. In the qualifying round, the representatives from Paraguay and Chile were beaten, against the Uruguayan teams and the hosts lost the Argentine team. As the third of the qualifying round they reached the semi-finals, in which Uruguay was beaten this time in the shootout. In the final, Brazil was clearly defeated, but qualified for the World Beach Games 2019 in Qatar , as Brazil was already qualified due to its placement at the last World Cup. Here Corimberto played a very good main round with Argentina, in which, in addition to the USA and Tunisia , the world-class teams from Denmark and Hungary were beaten. Only Brazil had to admit defeat again. In the quarter-finals Argentina had to admit defeat to the surprisingly strong team from Vietnam . In the placement games, Argentina then clearly defeated the reigning world champions Greece , then lost to Poland in the game for fifth place and came in sixth.

In February 2019 she and her team ACHA de Mar del Plata , which also included all the other gold medalists of the Youth Olympic Games, Gisella Bonomi, Rosario Soto , Carolina Ponce, Caterina Benedetti, Lucila Balsas, Belén Aizen , Zoe Turnes and Jimena Riadigos , won the Title in the first ever Argentine beach handball summer tour.
