|COLOR = Gold

|BIRTHPLACE = Betazed

Michael is the eldest of two siblings, having a younger sister with an age gap of eleven years between them.

 

At the time of his birth, Michael Father was a middle aged man and former combat veteran of the Star Fleet Marine Corps. His mother was in her early twenties, studying for her degree in civil engineering on her home world Betazed. As a child Michael’s his father was having a hard time transferring from military to civilian life and did not show the love and tenderness expected of a new father, this had a knock on effect into Michael’s youth with their relationship being very distant.  

 

Throughout his childhood education Michael suffered bulling and teasing for having almost no Telepathic abilities, as a teenager be began getting into fights often and being suspended from school was a regular occurrence. Michael briefly contemplated entering the Marine Corps once he finished his schooling, but recognized this an attempt to connect with his father that was likely to fail. Instead Michael enlisted into Star Fleet and entered the basic engineering program. His Mother was supportive of the decision but was also quietly disappointed that he did not aim higher.

 

Michael has always had a very good relationship with his younger sister, Laura.  

 

Michael began his career as an enlisted teenager and for the first part of his career he was a complete profession, being reliable, willing to learn and extremely hard working. He also received recognition in the logs of his first CO for his part in the rescue of two junior officers from a compartment fire in his ships science labs.  

Michael climbed the enlisted ‘ratings’ with relative quickness until he reached Petty Officer 2nd class. Over a four year period this rank Michael’s demeanor while on duty and off changed dramatically, due to being involved in two bad relationships getting assigned to a ship with poor morale and discipline. During this time frame Michael was involved in and reprimanded for various infractions including, the most serious of which included three physical altercations between himself and off duty Marine personnel and being0 suspected as supplying the ship’s crew contraband. On the last occasion, five cases of Romulan Ale and a container of Cardassian disruptors found in a one of the ships shuttles that was listed as down for repair. While it could not be proven by the Master at Arms that these were Michael’s there was enough circumstantial evidence against him to strip him of his Petty Officer 2nd Class rating and transfer him off of the ship.

After being demoted and wallowing in self pity for almost a year Michael resigned himself to have 'one last go' at resurrecting his star fleet career and gained an his first excellent rating in six year in a performance review after his transfer.  

After two more excellent reviews, Michael was again transferred, this time to the USS Victory.

''From this point on, all Career History was actually simmed''

During his time as Gunner’s Mate Michael often took the tactical consol while the senior officers were on stand down or on away missions. During one such away mission, the Victory was surprised attacked. With entire senior staff on an away mission and much of the Victory exposed to vacuum, Michael was battle field promoted to Petty Officer 1st Class by the Acting CO Lieutenant J.G Shedet so that he could take command of the remaining engineering section and begin repairing the ship. While that role was only temporary his promotion was not revoked when the senior staff returned. 

 

 

While on the USS Victory Michael entered into a romantic relationship with Staff Sergeant Brooks Gwinnett (PNCP of Eerie).
