Greatest achievementRepresenting Ireland at the European Championships 2007 and Olympics 2009 and jumping clear cross country on both occasions
Main ambitionTo use my experience now and win a Team Championship medal
Horse I would like to own/rideI would like to ride Ashdale Cruise Master. He has been produced to 4* level by my friend Emily Gilruth and is by Cruising. He is lovely and moves, jumps and gallops like a Thoroughbred
Biggest influenceMy mum who brought us up riding all sorts of horses, breaking them in and getting them going. Tuffy Tilly who taught me how to ride cross country and Ginny Elliot who inspired me to take up eventing when watching her ride at Badminton and Burghley in the 80's and 90's
Favourite sportsperson outside equestrian sportSteve Redgrave - his dedication and what he has achieved
If I wasn't an international rider I would like to beA vet
I spend my spare timeI hunt as much as I can in Winter. I ski if it is possible. I enjoy going to the gym and running. I have done the London marathon and am hoping to do the Dublin marathon. I enjoy seeing friends, reading and watching a good film
