Personality & Traits
General Overview | Brilliant mind, extremely focused, but when there isn't a medical emergency to deal with she tends to be concentrating on one of her research projects so Allison can come off as absentminded and somewhat distracted. | |
Strengths & Weaknesses | Excellent bedside manner, true empathy with her patients, but able to make hard calls and deliver bad news when necessary. She is shy and socially awkward to the point on introversion, although in general she quite likes having people around her. | |
Ambitions | No true ambitions aside from being able to pursue her personal projects in the best way possible, which is what has lead her to Starfleet. | |
Hobbies & Interests | Scientific research. With her studies complete and her medical career established, Allison focusses her off-time on researching cures and vaccines for the various diseases that still plague the galaxy. |
Personal History | Allison was raised and homeschooled on a pleasure cruise ship, owned and operated by her parents - although not of the ocean variety. This gave her the opportunity to be exposed to a wide variety of races and planets, which fed her inquisitive mind. | |
Service Record | This will be her first Starfleet posting. | |
Education | Her formative years she was homeschooled aboard her parents' cruise ship, but when her thirst for knowledge advanced beyond the abilities of her parents and computer scholars to fulfill, she was transferred to various other education institutions on Vulcan, Betazed and finally Earth. Over this time she completed degree programs in general medicine, paediatric medicine and neuro-science. During these years her interest in vaccine development grew and she finally applied to Starfleet, believing their explorative nature would lead her to greater opportunities for research, willing to accept the militaristic transience that came along with that commitment. |
