Leona was initially stationed on in the Midway Repair Facility -A Midway Repair Facility and Starfleet operated shipyard located between Gorn/Tholian, Federation, Romulan, and Klingon sections of space in the Ithassa Region- where she served as an engineer for one year and was promoted to Lieutenant junior grade. With the rising threat of war with the Tholian's on the horizon and the shuffling and reallocating of resources within the Federation and Starfleet, Leona soon found herself being transferred to a new station that could make better use of her skills.

Her unwavering dedication to the ideal of the TPS -Tank Patrol Squad, Private Police, Durrant Company- and her obsession with her custom built gun are the two largest factors that get her into trouble in Starfleet. Leona's approach to criminal activity is much more brutal and unforgiving than Starfleet's and she struggles to operate within her new careers rules on such matters. In addition, she was initially restricted from using her personal gun on duty because it is a highly lethal ballistic weapon. After many hours off requests and appeals, she was finally approved to carry the weapon after it's FPS (Feet per second) and resulting maximum force was reduced by 32% and only with restricted ammo use. She is only allowed to use non-lethal ammo's such as beanbags, shock, and sticky rounds, and in rare cases flashbang or tear gas rounds. Use of this weapon must be permitted by the highest commanding officer of any vessel she serves on regardless of duration and while she has been allowed to carry it on the Midway Repair Station, she has never had to fire it while serving in Starfleet.  

She was raised in a manner that promoted a female dominant atmosphere, but not as strong as had she been raised on Cygnet XIV. She has always been a hot-headed girl and she rebelled against her mother and fathers life and rules by dressing and acting like a tomboy against their wishes. Her family was not so strict that she needed to rebel through and the phase faded fast with her teenage angst starting around the age of sixteen. Her tomboy like personality was there to stay in many ways still, however, like in her hair and clothing choices, and her attitude when not around her parents or the important people her parents worked with.  

Leona joined a private police recruitment program when she turned eighteen. She graduated quickly. She was an excellent police officer and she is proficient with armored vehicles and has urban combat training. Leona was assigned to the Tank Patrol Squad on Gridir, a colony world with no law enforcement of its own. She was the only woman on active duty in the TPS, which had earned a reputation for knuckle-dragging misogyny. Leona was born and raised in Montreal, Canada, which isn’t the usual case among the TPS who usually are recruited from America. She served as an officer for two years as a combat engineer until the age of twenty when she resigned on good terms and joined Starfleet Academy. Leona designed and built her own gun while with the TPS. Her gun is a large pistol that has three attachments that turn it into a medium range rifle.

***1. There is an actual state of war against crime in many of the federations territories and worlds. In addition, the people in charge and the innocent majority are turning a blind eye to it.
