Personal History: Organized, can be difficult to work with. Remembers things and needs to have it all fit neatly together. Has a peculiar sense of humor that makes itself present during stressful times and may be inappropriate.
An accident during a rock climbing venture on Earth at age 13 resulted in local doctors wanting to amputate Julia's leg but her mother wouldn't allow it. Julia suffered surgery to install a metal rod, then several skin grafts. Sent back to the family quarters on the USS Horizon to recuperate, somehow infection set in and another surgery was performed to remove the decaying tissue. She took an active role in her recovery and a year later was walking on her own, her limp barely visible.
That same year, her father died in a freak accident on the holodeck when safety protocols were mistakenly disabled. Julia's mother went into shock over her beloved husband's death and never recovered.
Star Fleet transferred her to Tychoville base where she did research under close covert supervision. Julia and her brother accompanied their mother to Tychoville and were semi-raised by the base personnel
Julia's leg became re-infected prior to being assigned to SB118 OPS. The bone was damaged beyond repair. She was fitted with a bionic lower leg leaving the knee intact.
Professional History: Harden entered medical school in 237301.23, graduating four years later. At the urging of her pseudo-parents, she returned the following year to spend an additional four years specializing in surgery with a minor in psychology. Upon graduation, she joined Star Fleet.
