Bio:
Grew up on a farm outside of Bloomington, Indiana, USA. Played baseball in high school and at the Academy. Entered Starfleet to become a doctor like his father. Married the woman of his dreams in 2256 and was widowed on their honeymoon in Risa a day later. She was killed by a giant Squid and he was torn to pieces. He has no Right eye, Right arm and left leg. All but the eye is cybernetic.

Mood/Temperament:
He is very laid back. He was a lady’s man in his earlier years. Image meant everything to him. He was very handsome and well-groomed, and people loved his thick raven black hair and piercing blue eyes. Since he had lots of money and all the looks, he got a different woman every week it seemed. Until he actually found a woman that did not want him. He was intrigued and started out with the conquest to have her and ended up falling in love with her along the way. When she died and he was recovering in the operating room at a hospital in Risa they asked him if he wanted his skin regenerated and a cybernetic eye. He said to fix everything but leave his face alone so he can be reminded by how ugly he was towards women and that he didn’t deserve to be good looking again.

Now he treats women with respect and dignity, and he believes that is the main reason he has made it past the rank of Lieutenant. He is very honest and loves 20th century films, especially horror films and you can hear him often referencing some old movie and is usually the only one laughing. His only true friends are a medic named Kane and a very big lupine name Mwezi.

Has he found love again…….?
