Why did you apply to take part in The Inheritance?
I applied because I wanted an opportunity to put myself out there, have some fun and do something really adventurous before I settle down. I'm getting married this summer and we would like to start a family. I would like to have a little adventure before I do all that, AND I’d like to earn some money in order to do all that.

Tell us a bit about yourself and what you think you'll bring to the game. 
I am outgoing, loud, bubbly and friendly. I think I'll bring a lot of those aspects to the game in the sense that I think people will sort of trust me. They'll trust my leadership. So, I'm hoping that those qualities can come in, and people can enjoy that naturally outgoing personality. Then I can sort of use that trust in manipulative ways!

Would you call yourself a team player? 
I'm really good at being part of a team and being a team player. I'm also a bit of a natural leader.

What are you like when you're playing games with friends and family? Are you competitive?
I'm extremely competitive. It is known in my family that we cannot play certain games. For example, if we play Scrabble and someone comes up with a word that they cannot tell you the meaning of, it doesn’t count! If you don't know it, don't play it. There's been known to be fall out between me and my partner over things like that!

How are your powers of persuasion? Are you good at influencing people, bringing them over to your way of thinking?
Yeah, I think I am. Oh, it sounds bad to say but I think I'm probably quite manipulative...in a friendly way! I can use a little bit of the Scottish charm to sort of persuade people. I'm hoping I can get to know people well enough to do that with them. I kind of have this theory that the Hannah way of thinking is always best and I find it a little bit difficult to relinquish that.

If you succeed and walk away with a large amount of money, what will you spend it on?
Our dream wedding and we would like to start a family in the next year or so. I'm self-employed so I don't get any maternity leave. It would be really nice to have that time and know there's some money there. Have a little bit of a security blanket. I'd also really like to move to a farm. I'd like to move out to the countryside, and I'd like to rear alpacas!
