Maxwell's personal space is sparsely decorated, with a few exceptions.  He is fond of the mountainous region of his homeworld, and hangs one or two landscape images around his quarters.  As a personal reward for a promotion, Maxwell purchased a baby grand piano that dominates the floor space of the main room in his quarters.  There is a replicated straw fedora that adorns the work desk.  As well, he has a bottle of Saurian brandy prominently displayed, one that was received as a memento of an officer's exercise conducted on Starbase 118.

* '''Favorite Room''':  
''Personal'' - Holodeck.  One program in particular, a meticulously detailed recreation of a bar from Alpha III, where Maxwell spent his formative years as a teenager and young adult.  The recreation is complete enough to include copies of the original proprietors, as well as select regular patrons.  It is a private holoprogram, normally only accessible by Maxwell himself. In 2392, the program was irretrievably damaged when the Darwin sustained massive computer core damage.  Maxwell is currently in the process of trying to source the original programming and rebuild the cherished locale.

''Professional'' - [[ma:Astrometrics|Astrometrics lab]].  The majority of Maxwell's career has been spent conducting cartographic work in astrometrics labs of various sizes and layouts at a number of Starfleet installations.  Though rarely the lead researcher, he was at times integral to ongoing studies and learned the value of teamwork and delegation during his tenures in such workspaces.

When asked to describe himself, Maxwell Traenor would dryly remark that he is a wholly unremarkable person, and happy to be considered so. He is a genial, easygoing person, quick to laugh and hard to anger. As a young adult, he had no particular ambitions, save a reasonable interest in stellar cartography. He was able to secure a position, first as a civilian contractor, then as an enlisted crewperson, in the Astrometrics department of a large outpost, Starbase 20. He plodded through the ranks, and across a couple large stations, until he found himself stuck in career limbo at Specialist, 3rd class, working on mundane charting tasks. He started to yearn for more, and managed to secure the recommendation of a bemused and sympathetic former commanding officer in order to enlist at Starfleet Academy.

Although he still prefers to remain out of the limelight, and has been chided for having a plodding, methodical nature, Traenor has managed to maintain competent, if middling scores throughout his tenure at the Academy. Yet within him, he is starting to feel a spark of desire for personal growth and gain that had eluded him before. It is that spark which is driving him forward and pushing him to the edge of his comfort zone as he strives to better himself.
