History

Background

As a child, Eileen was always drawn into her own world and has always been of a strong mind. The thoughts of what could be being stronger than the recognition of what was to the exasperation of her parents. As an only child, she was doted on a bit, but this never served to imbalance her. Rather, it served to underpin her connection to her family for the most part. Her father had once served in Starfleet but rarely ever spoke of it, remaining a slightly over-protective parent regarding the topic. Her mother was of a more progressive bent and balanced nature, allowing fault and chance to work in her daughter's life and being there for her at any stumbling moment. This foundation has allowed her own force of will to blossom, becoming one of her strongest traits.

At an early age, Eileen showed a mixed intrinsic aptitude for mathematics, mechanics and physical law. She began martial arts training (Wing Chun Kung Fu) at her father's behest at age 7, something that she casually continues with to this day. In 2367, at age 10, she was involved in a minor mishap involving a project her father was working on. A supplemental support system for warp propulsion that would hopefully allow usage of low-yield warp-fields further within spatial gravity wells. She was poking her nose about when the safeties of the experiment failed and a cascade failure of the system triggered geometrically constricting force fields to erect, trapping her within the rapidly diminished physical space for a relatively short time. She was quickly extricated and the project rescued, but ever since then she has had a slight case of claustrophobia but has yet to suffer any attack of same in her adult life.

At age 15, during a tour of Starfleet Academy, she was introduced to one of her father's ex-shipmates, one Professor Miles E. O'Brien. It was over the course of the following year and a few conversations with him that her focus in education and choice of career was finalized towards engineering and starship duty, against the adamant prejudice of her father. In the latter half of 2376, she was awarded recognition in a Martial Arts competition held on Mars. Afterwards, her attention for it waned.

Graduated an above average student from Lindbergh High School in St. Louis, Missouri.

Upon entering Starfleet academy, her first day, an incident report was filed stating that she had accidentally said "please" to a Zaldan, which precipitated into an altercation within her dorm. The Zaldan was discharged from Medical two days later. While she was not the aggressor in the incident, a reprimand exists on her record for the occurrence.

Achieved honors for her academy Senior Thesis for a paper entitled "Side-stepping Warp Mechanic Translations: The Substantiation of Transwarp and so-called "Hyper"-warp mechanics within current technological/ecological standards." which postulated the co-mingling of standard and non-standard warp technologies to propagate more efficient travel between the arms of the galaxy.

During her sophomore year of the Academy in San Francisco, the Massacre of Setlik III was assigned as a research project to her Starfleet Military History class. During her research, through happenstance and then further intrigued investigation, she uncovered the reality of her father's role in the Massacre, aside from what little she had been aware of as a child. He had frozen in the line of duty, that being the reason that he was wounded, officers were killed, and why her father had so vehemently opposed her desire to join Starfleet. She was mortified and over time found herself growing more and more isolated socially and academically, against her best efforts to move beyond the revelation. She brought the matter to a professor at the academy and after informing him of the situation, requested a letter of recommendation for transfer to another campus. He acceded, resulting in her mid-term transfer to Starbase 118’s campus.

She graduated on stardate 238304.01 with honors majoring in Engineering and a focus towards Warp Field Theory and Mechanics.

Her time since then is not one of record, up to her re-acceptance to refresher courses with Starfleet Academy for re-accreditation as an engineer in 2391.

Has an affinity for animals. Terran Canines, most notably.
