<p>Katy is a very shy person; this is often at odds with how confident she is when she's in her element.  In social situations she tends to be quiet and retiring.  In order to become aquainted with her, a person generally has to seek her out.  Once the ice is broken, Katy is a very engaging person in small groups.</p>

<p>Katy is a 'time sensitive', which despite the impressive name mostly involves feeling sick when something goes wrong with time nearby.</p>

<p>Katy eschews the traditions of addressing people by rank whenever possible, preferring first names even with her superiors.  Along the same lines, she insists that all her security people call her by her own first name.</p>

<p>She speaks with an accent close to a 'Home Counties' accent.</p>
==Office==
Katy's office is on deck 512, the same deck as one of the main security offices, near the main brig.  It is still sparsely-furnished and has three doors - a door to the corridor outside, a door to the adjoining security office, and (most vital of all, in Katy's thinking) a door to a small private lavatory.  The second door she often keeps in open position, just to facilitate interaction with the other security officers on duty. 
==Quarters==
Her quarters are a cozy one-bedroom apartment on deck 905, which doesn't really look lived-in yet.  She's too used to living out of a rucksack to have filled it with much stuff yet.

<p>After being sent back to earth for recovery, her security clearance was revoked until further notice and she was placed on open-ended leave, until such time as Starfleet Security could be certain she had not been compromised.  Her attempts to make the most of this enforced leave were dashed with the death of her mother Mags, which sent Katy deep into depression.</p>
