Personal History

- 237509.01 Entered the Dohrein Medical School, located on Eh'naan, in the Attraxan island chain on Rodul. Dohrein is generally considered to be one of the finest medical schools on Rodul. Along with traditional medicine, Dohrein also explores alternative healing techniques. The school's founder, Entarel Dohrein, a formidable physician in his own right, traveled extensively and incorporated healing techniques from many worlds into the curriculum including the holistic approach championed by Patch Adams (see [1].
- 237906.01 Graduated medical school and was accepted for medical residency at Dohrein Medical Center.
- 238009.01 Began medical residency at a respected hospital in the capital city. Nearly at the end of her residency, she was included on emergency response team after a massive earthquake leveled most of a city on a neighboring island. She worked tirelessly for many hours helping to find and triage people trapped in the wreckage. It wasn't until much later, while showering that it all caught up to her and she cried, while the water sluiced away her tears, until the the hot water was all but gone.
- 238290.10 Finished medical residency.
- 238303.05 Traveled to Vulcan to study telepathic/mental disciplines under the guidance of a former patient, Saren, in preparation for Starfleet Academy. Saren, who lived in Vulcana Regar, taught Nienne how to manage her telepathy. Under his guidance, she learned meditation, how to build and maintain shields, and how to communicate telepathically without causing harm to the recipient.

- 239101.05 Graduated Starfleet Academy and traveled home to Rodul to spend a short while with her family
Kenoi grew up part of a large and loving family of in the Attraxan islands on Rodul; from a very early age what she wanted most was to explore the stars, a profession that was largely frowned upon on Rodul. When it was clear that she was drawn to medicine and to helping people, she was encouraged to attend medical school. She went to medical school and finished her residency on her home world. During her residency in a busy hospital, life was settling into a rhythm and that should have been the end of it. Life defined. However, her early interest in exploration returned with a vengeance and she knew that she still wanted to explore the stars. More than that, she knew that she had to leave Rodul. She had to try.
Upon completion of her residency she traveled to Vulcan where she spent two years studying telepathic and mental disciplines. While there, she did some research and found Starfleet Academy. It wasn't until her application was accepted and her departure date set that she started telling people back home. Then, after many discussions and more than a few arguments with family and well-meaning friends, Kenoi traveled to Earth for her first real exposure to non-telepaths. While at the Academy, along with her medical studies, she minored in Science (Genetics and Nanotechnology) and took the command course.
