Favorite anecdote associated with being on the show:
While dancing in a disco in Belfast, a man approached me and said, “Hey, you're the girl from the movie... The Pauly Shore movie!” I told him I wasn't an actress, but that if I were I certainly wouldn't be in a Pauly Shore movie! Months later my uncle, then the parent of teenage sons, informed me that one of my Jeopardy! appearances was featured in a Pauly Shore movie.

What did you do with your winnings?
I was able to buy my first car.

Anything else you would like the viewers to know about you?
Lives in England, and misses hockey and Cheetos.
