Well, I've never done this before. Apparently, ThisisGame interviewed Scarlett and posted a translated version of the interview on their website. There was no link to the original version so I thought I'd translate it back. If someone finds the original, I guess this can be closed.
Scarlett
We enjoyed your impressive performance. When did you start playing Starcraft 2?
I first began in April 2011.
Is this your first attendance at a major tournament?
I've played in online tournaments before but this is my first time at a major lan.
Asking around, you seem to be rank 8 in NA GM.
I don't know the exact ranking but I am top 10.
You managed to defeat STTerious (Bumbleebee) at your first major tournament. How do you feel?
This was my first attendance, and I wasn't too confident so winning made me happy. My opponent attempted a lot of attacks, defending those well led to my victory.
In round 3, you were in an advantageous position against FXOOz. What do you think was the reason for your defeat?
I had too few infestors and broodlords. I should have obtained my tech more quickly and prepared those units.
You voluntarily revealed that you are transgender. As a result, you are drawing attention to yourself outside of the game, does this not bother you?
A little, but it was all expected. This kind of reaction would've happened eventually once my situation became known so I didn't dwell on it.
If you are given the chance, are you willing to play in Korea?
Of course.
If you have a Korean progamer role model, who?
MarineKing
Then do you have a Korean Progamer you find attractive?
Yes. But I won't say who (chuckle). Let me keep it a secret.
You now have to play in the loser's round. Are you confident about advancing?
I am most confident against Terran and not so much against Zerg. Today, I haven't played against Terrans yet so if I meet Terrans on the way, I may make it.
Will you continue to attend tournaments?
Of course. I will keep improving my play and keep trying.
Took a series off of ddoro, terious, and demuslim and a game off of Oz. That's easily better than most NA pros. Scarlett next signed member of some notable team? Maybe Eclypsia...

Quantic Gaming @QuanticGaming Close Wow Scarlett is amazing! Can't wait to talk with her.
Hopefully she will attend the next MLG. Awesome to have more Canadian talent!
Seeing how she plays and how good she plays, with apparently not fulltime dedication, her talent could prepare for a pretty successful progamer career. I don't want to hype her too high, but I'll gladly follow her.
From her games vs. Oz, she seemed to have incredible mechanics, and just needed to work on her late-game timings a little (as she says in the interviews). If you didn't see the games, she basically just made too many roaches.
What did she mean when she said she's transgender? I know what transgender means (sort of) I just can't believe she meant what I think she meant? (she used to be a boy?)

She was born biologically male, or in some grey area that the doctors decided was closer to male, but she's female in terms of gender. We don't know (and don't really have any business knowing) whether she's undergone gender reassignment surgery, but she identifies as female.
