Rebecca McKinnon was born and raised on the shore of the East Australia Wilderness Reserve.  Her maternal grandfather is Admiral Tanner Anderson and his stories of the early days of the Federation Exploration Corps helped fuel a sense of wanderlust and adventure that frankly didn’t really need any extra fueling.  The youngest of four children, Bekka had a curiosity and brash sense of adventure that led her to continue to push the boundaries of her ever expanding world.  She still calls him Captain Tanner when not in earshot of other personnel.

had a curiosity and brash sense of adventure that led her to continue
to push the boundaries of her ever expanding world.  She still calls  
him Captain Tanner when not in earshot of other personnel.  


Exceptionally bright and blessed with an energetic nature and dangerously permissive parents, Bekka challenged herself beyond her advanced studies.  All the while, learning as much as she could about the growing Federation around her.  She had an unnatural ability to master languages and accents.  She was also possessed of an insatiable curiosity that led her to explore the wilderness around her by bike and by sail as soon as she could manage both.

by bike and by sail as soon as she could manage both.


She took accelerated courses and graduated early entering College at the age of fifteen and cut a year off her stay at Sydney University, graduating with specializations in Linguistics and Xenolinguistics as well as Federation Society and Cultural Studies.  Slightly undersized and inexperienced technically, she applied and got into the Sydney University Starfleet program almost on ambition alone.  She was accepted to Starfleet Academy on her first try, barely scraping through the entrance exam, leading some to speculate about the Admiralties involvement.

She caught up quickly, however, and managed to graduate 65th in a class of 278.  It was her scores in Linguistics and Cryptography that stood out, she was held out of her cadet cruise and assigned to a diplomatic conference at Starfleet Headquarters, earning a duty commendation for her efforts in assisting negotiations in a border dispute between Orion, Trill and a small collective of worlds called the Tralion Confederacy.

Though blessed with a wild curiosity and the ability to learn quickly and adapt readily, Rebecca McKinnon has no experience at all in shipboard life.  She is adept with small scale technological systems and can ‘field engineer’ anything up to the size of a hoverbike.  She does not do as well with more advanced power systems and is not an asset in engineering.  She met basic qualification standards for helm duty and applied sensor technology.

B. Background Summary
---------------------

Rebecca McKinnon was born and raised on the shore of the East Australia 
Wilderness Reserve.  Her maternal grandfather is Admiral Tanner Anderson
and his stories of the early days of the Federation Exploration Corps 
helped fuel a sense of wanderlust and adventure that frankly didn’t 
really need any extra fueling.  The youngest of four children, Bekka 
had a curiosity and brash sense of adventure that led her to continue
to push the boundaries of her ever expanding world.  She still calls 
him Captain Tanner when not in earshot of other personnel. 

Exceptionally bright and blessed with an energetic nature and 
dangerously permissive parents, Bekka challenged herself beyond her 
advanced studies.  All the while, learning as much as she could about
the growing Federation around her.  She had an unnatural ability 
to master languages and accents.  She was also possessed of an 
insatiable curiosity that led her to explore the wilderness around her
by bike and by sail as soon as she could manage both.

She took accelerated courses and graduated early entering College at 
the age of fifteen and cut a year off her stay at Sydney University, 
graduating with specializations in Linguistics and Xenolinguistics 
as well as Federation Society and Cultural Studies.  Slightly 
undersized and inexperienced technically, she applied and got into
