===Early Life=== | |||
On stardate 236712.12 Vanessa Driscoll was born as second child to Mary and James Driscoll in New Cork, on the Federation colony of Toral IV. | |||
She had a carefree childhood growing up at the farm of her father. She had a very close relation to her older brother, who always supported her | |||
and always stood on her side. At the age of 12, she was already trained in using a phaser, as her father needed every hand to protect the farm | |||
against some of the wild animals on the colony world. | |||
When she was 17, she made up her mind on her future and told her parents that she wanted to join Starfleet. Her father was strictly against the idea, | |||
because he thought of the future of the farm and his family on the rather new colony. But her father’s refusal did not discourage her – quite the | |||
contrary was true. In the end and with the support of her brother and mother, her father allowed her to apply – although he still hoped she would | |||
not be admitted. When she was admitted, he had to accept it eventually. | |||
===[[Academy Library|Starfleet Academy]]=== | |||
So at the age of 18, Vanessa enrolled at Starfleet Academy in San Francisco and moved to her parents’ original home world, the Earth. She did not have | |||
much trouble finding new friends there and enjoyed the time they spent socialising. Her academic performance was average, which was mainly due to the | |||
fact that she often spent her free time with her friends instead of learning for her courses. Nevertheless, she was able to pass the courses, even the | |||
ones, she was not that much interested in. She liked the tactics courses, which resulted in good results in that field, as well as physical education. | |||
In the last two Academy years, after completion of the Academy's General Studies program, she finally spent more time on learning as she concentrated | |||
on her minors and majors which she laid in the fields of security and tactics. It was at that time that strong, black coffee became her favourite drink. | |||
In the end she didn’t rank among the best, but she had improved and achieved good results. | |||
===[[Starfleet]]=== | |||
After her cadet cruise, Vanessa Driscoll was assigned to the [[USS Discovery-C]] as [[Security (Duty_Post)|Security officer]]. | |||
