I am not sure if this is recommended, but if you didn't create anything
personal yet, yo should be able to copy everything in you home folder to her
account, especially every file and folder with a name starting with a dot,
such as .bashrc, .gnome and whatever. The easiest way to do this should be
opening a terminal and type something like:
sudo cp -r /home/<your user name>/* /home/<her user name>/
but WAIT to do this until someone else writes here and confirm or deny this.
I'm kind of a beginner myself, you know.
