Biography/Personality:

Gillian was born in Wales to a prestigious family of old money.  Her mother was an Olympic champion equestrian rider and her father is a world-famous author.  She grew up a very cultured life and even at a young age showed an incredible drive.  She studied at the University College of Wales, majoring in psychology with an emphasis on sports psychology and counseling.  As soon as she finished college she began traveling.  She traveled all over Europe and Asia working with gymnasts, ballerinas, competitive ballroom dancers, divers, figure skaters, and other sports with such an emphasis on the body and the grace of the body.  She worked in Japan, China, Russia and Germany frequently.  She never stayed in one place, without leaving, for more than a year.  She speaks Russian, German, Chinese, Japanese, French, Welsh and English fluently.  She can easily pick up on any language and can communicate comfortably in many other languages.  She has come to Kensington to finally settle down for a few years so she can put her major to use, work on her photography, own some stables and work with horses again.  She is an impulsive woman with a girlish charm and sensuality about her.  She has never been able to fully commit to anything but herself and her passions.
