I am from Pennsylvania, USA. I have enjoyed Star Trek since I was about 6 or 7. I was first introduced when my dad showed me "Balance of Terror" (his favorite episode) from TOS. After watching all of TOS we watched all of TNG, then Enterprise, then I watched Voyager on my own, and am currently watching DS9 on my own. I have watched every movie and the only series that I don't have access to is Discovery (because I live in the US, so not on Netflix, and I don't want to pay for CBS All Access). Anyway, it has always been my biggest dream to be a part of Starfleet and when I found this I knew that it would be the closest I would ever get to the real thing. When I started out, I was a Vulcan named D'Vek. With him I failed the Academy twice because of a lack of time due to school classes and I found it difficult to be unemotional (I am a very emotional person). So, to make a long story short, I made a new character: the human we all know as Ben Burns. Personally, I am not a very good writer or artist, but I am the creative type. I just put that creativity into Technological (Computer Science/IT) and Physical (Models) forms. I hope that this amazing group will help me through my struggles as they have already. I have loved every moment with this group of amazing people!
