Clara Jane Van Dyk '23 Recruiting Profile

I grew up in a large family of adopted and special needs siblings. As well as foster children. I’ve learned to navigate and rise above generational trauma. my goal for college is that I’ll be the first in my birth family to attend and graduate university. I know how to set a goal and achieve that goal without question. I’m very determined and dedicated to my sport and to my academic achievements. I row at Row Ontario, and have been rowing there for 2 years. This has helped me always set goals and to never question my abilities. My goal for rowing is to be in a top crew boat. My goal is to also make the U23 World Championships to represent Canada just like when I made the U19 Worlds team in August 2023.
