Klymchuk competed in two U Sports/Curling Canada University Championships for the Thompson Rivers University WolfPack in 2015 and 2016.

She competed in her first British Columbia Scotties Tournament of Hearts in 2015 as second for a team which consisted of her three sisters,[4] Courtney Karwandy, Crista Sanbrooks and skip Amanda Russett. They finished winless in the triple knockout bracket, going 0–3. The team returned the following year where they would finish in last with a 1–6 record.
Klymchuk took a season off curling before joining former teammates Corryn Brown and Erin Pincott who brought on Dezaray Hawes for the 2018–19 season. Team Brown played in seven tour events and qualified in six of the seven including winning the King Cash Spiel and the Sunset Ranch Kelowna Double Cash. It was Klymchuk's first tour event win. At the 2019 British Columbia Scotties Tournament of Hearts they lost the final to Sarah Wark.
In their first event of the 2019–20 season, they missed the playoffs at the Booster Juice Shoot-Out. They then missed the playoffs at the 2019 Colonial Square Ladies Classic. They then made the playoffs at six straight events starting with the Prestige Hotels & Resorts Curling Classic where they made it to the quarterfinals. The following week, they won the Driving Force Decks Int'l Abbotsford Cashspiel and two weeks after that they won the Kamloops Crown of Curling. Their next event was the Tour Challenge Tier 2 where they lost to Jestyn Murphy in the semifinal. They also made the semifinal at the Red Deer Curling Classic. They lost the final of the 2019 China Open in mid-December, their last event of 2019. Klymchuk won her first provincial title at the 2020 British Columbia Scotties Tournament of Hearts where this year they defeated Wark's rink by stealing the extra end. At the 2020 Scotties Tournament of Hearts, Team BC finished with a 5–6 record and they finished in sixth place.[5]
