Why this sport?: It's a great lifestyle. Why be stuck in an office when you can get paid to windsurf?
How did you get into it?: Watersports holidays with my family, I gave windsurfing a go and it just clicked. I loved it from the start.
What next?: The plan is to stay at the top of my sport, get rich and famous and carry on doing what I love to do for as long as possible.
Any other sports?: I love wave sailing, golf, surfing and snowboarding
Favourite event and why?: Ooh that’s a hard one… but if I was pushed I’d have to say the Pre-Olympics because I won!!!
Favourite place in the world?: My home town, Weymouth.
Training regime?: 10 hours aerobic exercise a week, 10 hours on-water training and 2 weights/core stability sessions a week. I travel to a lot of international events; there is at least one overseas regatta each month, so I tend to be away for between 10 days and two weeks a month for competitions.
What makes you good at your sport?: I’m determined, enthusiastic and aggressive on the water.
Advice to others wanting to get into the sport?: Go to your nearest windsurf centre. Try lots of different kit till you find what is right for you and choose a day where the wind is light and steady: if it’s warm and sunny, that’d be a bonus! Push yourself hard, but go at your own pace.
Married, Single, kids? Tell all!: I've got a boyfriend called Greg, who also windsurfs. He is organising the set up of a climbing centre near Dartford.
