Early life

Club career

On September 18, 2018, he made his senior debut at age sixteen with Toronto FC III in League1 Ontario in a 6–0 loss to Vaughan Azzurri. In 2019, he served as a reserve keeper with Toronto FC II in USL League One, but did not appear in any matches.

In 2022, after spending the preseason with York United, Himaras signed with Electric City FC of League1 Ontario. He made his debut on May 21 in a 2–1 victory over ProStars FC.

In July 2022, Himaras re-joined York United on a permanent basis. He made his debut on August 7 against Valour FC, coming on as a first-half substitute for Niko Giantsopoulos, after the latter suffered an injury. He made his first start in the next match on August 14, in a 3–2 victory over FC Edmonton. In December 2022, he re-signed for another year, with an option for 2024. In January 2024, he re-signed with the club for the 2024 season.
