Chosen career if I were not an archer: I would like to have been a Forensic Scientist. I was actually a Systems Analyst

Three words to describe me: Happy, friendly, loyal

Biggest influence on career: The other members of the squad are very supportive and always ready to share knowledge and experiences. My family are very important to me and I am driven to do well so that I can repay the sacrifices they make for me.
