Joan is self-assured to the point of (occasionally) being cocky. That being said, she is actually hesitant to put herself forward among strangers, though if required to do so, she won't be hesitant about giving her opinion. For the most part, Joan is an optimistic young woman, confident in those areas she considers part of her bailiwick. She won't (or tries not to) represent herself as knowledgeable in areas she feels she has no training or education in. This confidence and optimism, however, has recently been tempered in a situation where she felt her "psychic nullness" was actually a hindrance in her ability to perform her duties. After a bout of self-doubt, Joan recommitted herself to her Star Fleet career. | Joan is self-assured to the point of (occasionally) being cocky.
