What is your sporting ambition?
To win a medal at the Olympics
What was your inspiration to take up your sport?
I played indoor volleyball for Scotland and when I started playing beach one of the major things that attracted me to the sport was that the only two people that could affect the outcome of the game was my team, and that we had to learn to do it on our own, unlike indoor where a coach is there to help you along. It gave me a sense of ownership.
What are your interests outside of sport?
I love to travel, which the sport really helps, although we only ever see our hotel room and the competition/training venues. I love going to the cinema and reading a really good book.
In your mind, what's the most memorable moment of past Olympics/Paralympics?
Kelly Holmes winning two Golds at the Athens 2004 Olympics or Phelps winnings 8 Golds in the Beijing 2008 Olympics
What three words best describe you?
Organised, cheeky, hardworking
Who should light the flame for London 2012?
A beach volleyball player as it might help the country recognise and support our athletes
If you were a character from a film, who would you be and why?
Someone like Lara Croft, as she goes on these crazy adventures all over the world, knows so much about the history of things and has an amazing house with lots of cool gadgets.
