| Personal History | Born in San Francisco, Earth, Alexis was raised in a family steeped in Federation ideals — diplomacy, education, and service. From a young age, she learned the value of calm under pressure and the importance of empathy in leadership. Initially drawn to psychology, Alexis entered Starfleet Academy focusing on xenopsychology and counseling. Her early service aboard the USS Newton and later the USS Odyssey revealed her remarkable ability to maintain order during crises — both emotional and logistical. As she often worked alongside Operations and Command staff, she became fascinated by the intricate balance of systems that keep a starship running. Following commendations for crisis coordination and resource management, she pursued cross-training in Operations. She completed a secondary specialization in Starship Systems Management and was later reassigned as an Assistant Operations Officer. Her hybrid background made her a bridge between crew morale and mission logistics. After years of proven service, she earned her promotion to Lieutenant Commander and took her place aboard the USS Sunfire as Chief Operations Officer, where she now ensures the vessel functions at peak efficiency — both technically and interpersonally. |
