What is your sporting ambition?
To compete and medal at an Olympic Games
What was your inspiration to take up your sport?
I had always enjoyed participating and competing in a variety of sports and thought I would try a new one.
What are your interests outside of sport?
Sadly skiing and country pursuits have been retired for now, due to fencing. But shopping is always a winner!
In your mind, what's the most memorable moment of past Olympics/Paralympics?
Watching Usain Bolt become the fastest man alive, making it so look effortless at the Beijing 2008 Olympic Games.
What three words best describe you?
Ambitious, Dedicated, Confident
Who should light the flame for London 2012?
Sir Steve Redgrave, one of the British Greats.
If you were a character from a film, who would you be and why?
Elizabeth Swan from Pirates of the Caribbean. She goes after what she wants, wears great outfits, hangs around with pirates and has the odd sword fight.
