DOB: 30 December 1981
Position: Midfielder
Most memorable teammate and why: my brother - I started playing because he did. I used to be so jealous that he was able to play when I wasn’t allowed to (being a girl). I finally got my chance to play when my brother’s team didn’t have enough players - and then stayed with them for the rest of the season. We were so ridiculously competitive with each other and always tried to outdo each other...
Football Nice Guys or Football Bad Boys: Football Bad Boys… much more interesting!
Pet Peeve: people cracking their knuckles…
Are you a Summer or Winter girl: Summer definitely. I love the beach and am happiest in a t-shirt and thongs.
I'd love to spend a year in: South America... or Nepal… or maybe both… I love hiking, and would really love to spend time trekking Nepalese mountains and travelling through South America.
On your Ipod right now: Not much… Can’t actually find my Ipod at the moment…
The last movie you cried at: I cry during most movies… Slumdog Millionaire might have been the most recent. A great movie, and at least a few tears…
What would you spend your last $20 on: I’m usually not much of a gambler - but I might just bet it all on ‘red’ and see how I fare…
Your footballing idol: Zinedane Zidane.
My football pilgrimage would be to: the World Cup, Brazil, 2014…
Advice to young players: Dream big. Live big. And don’t let other people’s expectations of what you can and can’t do dictate your choices.
