Childhood:
Like many other kids, she spent a good portion of her childhood being teased.
She coped by doing her best to ignore the teasing, and receeding into books and
daydreams. Her passion for the stars began when she was very young. Her Mother
would take her siblings and her outside at night and point to different stars
saying, "That's where your Father is now." The family would then go
inside and look up all the information they could find on that star and area. As
she got older and her siblings lost interest, she began to take her father's
messages about where he was and look them up herself. Then she would go outside
with the book to locate where he was in the night sky and lay under the stars
either thinking of what she would do if she were in his place or studying the
known spacial phenominons of that area. When she was old enough, she attempted
to follow in her Father's footsteps by applying to Starfleet Academy. She was
accepted and moved to Earth for school. During her first year she took a
piloting class. It was then she found her true desire and talent. She changed
the focus of her academic career, studying Stellar Cartography and Impulse
mechanics while learning to pilot all types and sizes of ships. She joined one
of the school's flight sqaudrons. By the beginning of her last year she had
earned the position of leader of her squad. She was graduated as an Ensign. A
year later she landed an exciting assignment as a rotating Conn Officer on the
Enterprise. She recieved a promotion to Lt.J.G. while serving aboard the
Alliance. She recieved promotions to Lt. and then Lt. Cmdr. while serving aboard the Sunfire. But when she was passed over one too many times for promotion into the line of command, she decided she must just not have what it takes to advance in Starfleet, and resigned. However, Admiral West had just not known about her ambitions for command. When she finally made them know, in her resignation letter, it was too late. The only recourse West saw was to enter her into Starfleet's records as on extended LOA with a recommendation to try and recruit her back into Starfleet at a later date with a position that would lead to command.

Personality:
Quiet, but not shy. Pleasant and friendly attitude in general. Adventurous
spirit and a desire to see everything the universe has to offer. However doesn't
take great risks. Slow to make friends, but likes spending time with them when
she has them. Most enjoys flying as "That's when I feel the most free and
in control, all at once." When the opporunity arose for her to become a
Security Officer she took it. She thought she would see more in that line of
work. But she discovered that what she saw as a security officer wasn't as
fulfilling as what she saw as a pilot. Planets and aliens were nice and all, but
those could be seen from behind the conn. She missed the stars and unique
formations that could only be found in space. She missed plotting flight plans,
thrill of piloting in battles, and the simple flying of a ship. She definately
missed piloting too much. So she decided to return to the Conn of a starship.
Hobbies:
Reading and piloting small and one- or two-man crafts around obsticles, through
phenominons, or just across the openess of space.
