General Overview

She started her career as a diplomatic officer, earning the diplomatic rank of Envoy before deciding to focus more on a Starfleet career. She asked to be placed in a deep space vessel. She was assigned to the USS Sirona. She had spent the first four years of her career on Vulcan, meeting a lot of races. She felt her life was becoming a little stagnate. She still loved the idea of meeting new races, she felt that she could best accomplish this on a starfleet vessel.

In 2388 Elsie was assigned to the USS Sirona and promoted to Chief Diplomatic Officer. A role she took very seriously, and on their second mission with the Sirona, she was promoted to Acting First Officer after extraordinary events transpired on the USS Kubo. Injuring the first officer.

Strengths & Weaknesses

Strength:

Elsie has always been called a strong willed woman with a loving heart. Recently the USS Sirona's, responded to mayday call that caused Elsie and the rest of the away team to be infected by a virus, that was de-aging anyone affected by the virus. Elsie showed great strength and leadership, when learned they were infected. She managed to keep her composure after her first officer was in a comma and the death of another crew member.

She is able to speak her mind and get others to listen to her ideas, she is great at multi-tasking while deescalating hostile situations. She gets both sides to compromise and meet in the middle. Her skills came in handy on the second mission, when the away team was devastated by the news of their first officer being in a comma and their crew mate date. She managed to de escalate an emotionally compromised crew, and hold them together in order to find a cure to save them all.

Elsie is a great listener, and is she to reflect a calm presence, and adapt to almost any situation, thanks to her training on Vulcan. Out of the academy her first assignment was on Vulcan, where she learned patience, and the virtues of common sense. Her strong willed nature allows her to hold her position in negotiations, like any good diplomat, she knows how to read the body impressions, and the selective choice of words people tend to use, when trying to negotiate, she has an incredible memory and focus on the minor things, she has a real knack for attention to detail.

Weakness:

She loves to talk, sometimes a little much, not typically about herself, just the work she is into with her fellow crew members. One of her main focuses is to get people to open up, so she get them to talk, first about minor things, then flip the switch on them.

Typically afterword’s she feels like she has to keep the facade up and continues to talk to personal, not because she likes them, but out of a sense of duty. A trait she learned while on Vulcan, a trait, she hopes she can unlearn.

After being trapped on the USS Kubo with a life threatening virus, she has slightly changed her perspective on children, she use feel completely uncomfortable around kids. The idea of having kids was a little scary to her, in her early 20's but with 30 knocking around around the corner, she is learning to overcome her insecurities around children.

She has a natural fear of heights, even in a holodeck, she does not like the idea of being in high places, she does okay on a starship or a small craft, but not like to sit by windows, where she can see the ground coming up on her.

Elsie's self confidence was a little shaken, she has started to see Lieutenant Emri Dane the new counselor of the USS Sirona. She is still recovering after the near death, and the severe injury of Lieutenant Commander Alom Ehal. And the death of Lieutenant Reggie Hawthorne. She wondered why Lieutenant Phaedra, Ensign Cassidy Westphall and herself survived the incident.

To make matters worse, the captain promoted her to Acting First Officer, so she wants to do a good job in her new role. She knew the Captain offered her the position because he believed in her, and she wanted to do right about him. She took the role very seriously. And worked hard to be a good role model for the crew.

Ambitions

When Elsie boarded the USS Sirona her only goal was to meet as many new races as she could, to and charter them into the Federation. This goal seemed a little unattainable. Her first goal was way to easy to achieve. She wanted to become a Diplomatic Officer, and now that she has reached that goal, she feels like she needs more of a challenge. She recently discovered she likes the idea of being in command.

Elsie knows she is still young, but she has considered taking the first officer exam, but she is not sure if she ready and even if she fails, she knows she still has time to achieve this goal. Her brother Eric at the age of 33 is the first officer of the USS Santiago, a little part of her wants to try to become a first officer by her 30th birthday. In order to achieve this goal she asked Captain Batai Dhej, if she could take the first officer exam.

After completition of the second mission. Elsie was promoted to Acting First Officer of the USS Sirona by Captain Dhej, she was placed on a trail basis. She took the role very seriously and studied hard. She took and completed the first officer exam and the bridge officer test in the holodeck.

Hobbies & Interests

Elsie does not want to be competitive with her hobbies and interests, because she finds her work in the diplomatic field to be a very competitive, almost like cutthroat game. She enjoys playing sports for fun. Typically she does not keep score, and does not play with others that do, a lot of the time she will play with holographic characters and programs them not to be competitive.

Elsie loves to play racquetball, volleyball, soccer, chess, and most 21st century board games with her favorite being “Sorry” the board game. She is not very competitive, she loves to play the game, and learn from the game. She is more interested in learning all she can about the game.

Elsie loves to go camping and pitching up a tent as long as she has basic essentials, sleeping padd, tent, and other tools to enjoy her experience. She has not gone camping in eight years and really regrets the missed opportunities from it. She is hoping to talk to Captain Batai Dhej, about the next planet that is uninhabited, and they have some down time, if she can pitch a tent and camp.
