Talisa is the youngest of three children and was quickly recognized as what humans would call a ‘black sheep.’ She was born into an artistic family, her father was an Andorian blues musician who also tutored children in music while her mother was an Ice Sculptor with two exhibits to her work on Andor. All three of the Children where natured in various arts and encouraged to express themselves, Talisa did enjoy drawing as a child but was also interested in sports and more aggressive pursuits, at the age of seven her art teacher told her that her images were childish and ‘unfit for display’. While Talisa still enjoys ‘doodling’ privately she has never publicly shown any interest in art and after the discouraging incident with her art Talisa began playing with the Ushaan-tor (a miner's icepick and dueling weapon) to her parents dismay.

Talisa applied to join the Academy at the age of 19 but her application was rejected, while she passed all intelligence and aptitude tests she was informed that if she wanted to join the academy she would not need to prove that she could study and apply herself academically before she would be considered. Depressed and uncertain of what to do, Talisa traveled for a year before moving to the colony of Korvat. The colony, officially part of the Klingon Empire but heavily influenced by Federation culture was very liberating for Talisa, who enrolled herself in the Curzon Dax Institute of Culture and Learning, studying here for three years she gain a degree in Modern Klingon History. While on Korvat she studied the Bat'leth to moderate success and engrossed herself in Klingon culture going as far as to dye her hair black and braid it.

During her First mission aboard the USS Victory, Talisa was required to enforce quarantine procedures for a returning away team lead by the Executive Officer, Lt. Commander Eerie. The away team had beamed along with an unknown compound. When the away team arrived, many of the where sick or experiencing pain, however Lt. Commander Eerie was acting violent and confused. With the transporters force field down, Talisa and a marine Sergeant shot the commander in the chest with the weapons set on heavy stun. The phaser burst had no effect on Commander Eerie but the compounds effects quickly wore off and the Executive Officer realised he had been shot by the new Marine. Talisa and Eerie have since about the situation and there are no hard feelings.

While on her second mission, Talisa and the crew of the USS Victory encountered a future version of their ship captained by Sundassa Faranster. The Victory had come back in time to prevent the Federations annihilation by a species known as the ‘Hunger’. Talisa was part of an away team to explore the future vessel for survivors and information. While on the ship, Talisa violated the Temporal Prime Directive by access the ships records and looking up her own file from the future. The file was partially corrupted from the ships massive battle damage but it did tell her that she was Killed in Action sometime in the year 2398 fighting the Hunger, she posthumously received a promotion to the Rank of Lieutenant Commander and received a commendation for her action. The record also stated that she had a child, but it was too badly damaged to give her any more information about her child or the events leading to her death. This news that Talisa had died leaving a child behind without a mother caused her a great deal of emotional distress, she later confessed to Captain Nurga that she had broken the temporal prime directive by searching for her records from the future Vessel. I note of this has been place in her record but no further disciplinary action was taken. During the Victory’s confrontation with the Hunger Talisa commander the Tactical station, once the mission was complete Talisa was given the position of Chief Tactical Officer and promoted to Lieutenant Junior Grade.

{{Section|Martial Arts|Gold}}
 
Talisa played with the Ushaan-tor as a child and is has the fundamentals skills of Andorian dueling, However the two Martial arts that she continues to practice to are both Human martial arts that she picked up at the Academy,  Judo and Fencing. 
Talisa joined the Fencing team in-between the First and Second year while at the academy. She had been encouraged to join once she made her interest in majoring in Marine Officer training know, fencing was going through a revival at the academy among Marines because it was felt that phasers should not solely be relied upon in combat, dut to the possibility of failure or resistant enemies such as the Borg. Talisa has three swords, two solely for training and one which is part of her combat equipment. Her training swords are the Foils & the Epee, while she has a retractable sword resembling the Old-Earth Japanese style Wakizashi. Talisa finds fencing fun but she is only average compared with other fencers. However she still keeps the retractable Wakizashi on her hip in combat situations
 
Talisa joined the Judo team during her first year and instantly became an advocate of the martial art. Initially she could use her natural strength and speed to execute throws but she has since learned technique to go with those natural abilities, she also enjoys the ground fighting aspect of the martial art. She is currently a blue belt in Judo, and is training between 6 – 8 hours per week to work towards her brown belt.
