The young engineer does not mind getting her hands dirty, so to speak, and although she realizes the importance to look representative on duty, when absorbed in maintenance and repair tasks she has no issues to roll up her sleeves or otherwise adjust her uniform if that makes the task at hand easier.
She sometimes ties her long chestnut colored hair back or pins it up in a variety of ways depending on her mood.
Off duty, Romyana likes to experiment with the clothes she wears. She may take influences from other cultures and races and incorporate it in her very own style which can only be described as, on some occasions flamboyant, on other occasions more muted and elegant, but always complimented with eye-catching earrings.
Personality
She is and looks Human but has a sprinkling of Vulcan genes inherited through her mother's side of the family. Romyana has a lot of patience and always assumes the best of people.
It takes Romyana a while to befriend people, so most of her social interactions are simply polite and considerate. However, for those she considers friends or loved ones, she will jump into an antimatter reactor if necessary. On the other hand, once her trust is lost, it is not regained, ever.
Her thoughts are chaotic and her behavior can be erratic, even for human standards, and people may see a volatile and aggressive side come to the surface when she is angered or hurt.It is probably her Vulcan heritage that causes this excess in emotion and contrary to the Vulcan custom she has never trained to control this.
Not knowing things and unfamiliar situations make Romyana insecure. Hence, details and thorough preparation are important, because this is how she feels she can be ready for anything the universe may throw at her!

Background
On stardate 237308.22 Romyana was born to a Human father, Lee, and a half human, half Vulcan mother, Corynne. Shortly after, her parents marry and thirteen months later her brother Zeke was born.
At the age of 4 Romyana was hospitalized for over a year. At first the doctors had difficulties determining the cause of her acute and life threatening symptoms, partially because of her Vulcan hybrid heritage which makes her physiology slightly different than that of a pure human. Due to the long term heavy medication, Romyana herself does not remember anything before that time and she has only a few memories of her time in hospital. After some months she was diagnosed to suffer from a congenital disease causing chronic Cirrhosis of the liver and it took almost a year to nurse the young child back to health, or rather, as the physicians call it, a stable condition.
When Romyana and her brother were old enough to go to school, their mother returned to active duty and was assigned as Captain of a newly commissioned star ship. This meant the siblings were raised primarily by their father, who at that time had a teaching post at the Star Fleet flight range near Saturn. To her father's disappointment Romyana was more interested in studying the craft's mechanics than flying in it, nevertheless she spent some happy hours with her father taking the trainer craft out for a spin.
The family lived in a small federation base located on Iapetus, the third largest moon of Saturn. During that time Romyana discovered gymnastics and was quite successful in the sector competitions, however the excessive training regime she followed eventually took its toll on her knee joints and she was forced to stop the pursuit of the sport. Romyana studied hard and always did what her parents expected of her, but her brother Zeke was quite the opposite and as soon as he finished school he left to study Art with an obscure artists group on Andoria.
At the age of 18 Romyana joined Starfleet and was accepted to the Academy. At the same time her father and mother took a more administrative duty post at Star fleet Head Quarters and moved to San Francisco. Despite the family home being only a few blocks away from the Academy grounds, she stayed mostly within the campus complex and focused on her studies.
In the fourth and final Academy year, Romyana was given the opportunity to go on a work placement; a Cadet Cruise. She joined the Starfleet crew that was sent to a Deep Space station in need of repair and overhaul more than initially estimated, so they welcomed anyone Starfleet could send them with engineering knowledge. Those few months on the station, "moonlighting as engineering assistant" as she calls it, is where Romyana started to enjoy being part of Starfleet and she grew up from a naive shy girl to an independent joyful woman. It was also the place where she met Nommi Jarr, a young Bajoran crewman who aspired to become an engineering officer too. They became best friends.
Together with her best friend, Romyana returned to Earth briefly for completing some fourth year Academy courses. At his time she found out that her mother had grown exceptionally distant and cold.
