| Personal History | Jennifer was born on Betazed but moved within a year to Vulcan, where her mother made sure she was taught to be Vulcan. That lasted for 8 years, when they moved to Earth and Jennifer, who had always struggled with controlling her emotions, began to play with human children. Her family settled in Utah, a short shuttle ride from California. She is a bit of a tomboy, having three older brothers. She learned to rappel, hike, spelunk and shoot to be like her brothers. She enjoyed it a lot, and found that she had morefun hanging out with the boys than the girls. Her brothers became her best friends and she spent a lot of time in the mountains with them. She has been trained in outdoor survival, search and rescue and tracking. Her mother is a half-Vulcan/ half-Human professor of computer science. She taught at the Vulcan Science Academy and now teaches at Stanford on Earth. Her father is Betazoid and was an ambassador for Betazed and is now a diplomat for the Federation. She excelled at school and graduated at a young age. By the time she was 20 she had a Master’s Degree in history, archaeology and computers. She then went on to get a PhD in history and archaeology. For fun, she added Bachelor's degrees in literature and anthropology. Jennifer taught history at Oxford while she got her PhDs, but decided that she wanted to join Starfleet and explore. Because she already had several degrees, they let her take accelerated courses and test out of a number of her classes. She also taught basic science classes at the Academy. After she graduated, she was asked to stay at the Academy for a few years as a teacher. She left after a few years to take a position as an assistant chief science officer. As much as she loved teaching, Jen wanted to explore "strange new worlds and new civilizations.' Especially if they were ancient ones. |
