Personal History
| Personal History | From an early age Ruby has shown a talent for organisation. She was known as a child to have a very organised toy box so she knew where things were at all times. She was also always singing and dancing whenever there was music around her. She grew up looking up to her older Sister Dia who was more serious. Ruby was always wanting to play, and always wanting to have fun. In her middle school years, she discovered that she was very good at managing logistics in school affairs. She was on the planning commitee for the school festival and worked hard to ensure it was successful. It was then that Ruby realised she was actually not that bad at something worthwhile. Although her parents pushed her to work on that, she wanted to sing and dance more. She joined the idol club in her first year of high school, much to the disappointment of her older sister who was the student council president at the time. However, she enjoyed dancing and singing. She got into needlework and into the making of the costumes for the small group of girls. However where she really began to shine was behind the scenes where she helped manage the stage lighting, sound equipment and some of the props. it was this that would evantually lead her into her Starfleet Career. When she graduated High School at age eighteen, she wasn't sure what to do. Her older sister had gone into Starfleet. Being not sure, she decided to give it a shot. She thought her timid and quiet nature would stp her application so she wasn't sure about it. However she was accepted. She underwent basic orientation and asked which department she wanted to aim for. She wasn't sure at the time. The next year she spent at the Academy training to become an officer. She picked up a lot of knowledge and was amazed that she was keeping it in because it interested her. In her second year, she was pulled aside and advised to go into Engineering or Operations. Ruby chose Operations as she liked the idea of running the day to day jobs on a ship. Plus is worked to her strengths. The next two years passed quickly and Ruby was then in her senior year. Her senior year she found herself being placed on a cadet cruise on the USS Unicorn along with several other cadets. She was placed as the Chief of Operations for the cruise and loved serving on the bridge. She worked hard on her cadet cruise and the Unicorn returned back to the Academy in plenty of time for graduation. Ruby graduated in the top 5% of her class, she had put the work in to excel at her strengths. Her sister was now a Lieutenant and she wanted to get up to her rank too. However she was still a few rungs lower on the ladder. After graduation Ruby was awaiting orders with her rank of Ensign. She was told she would be taking an Operations Position on the next available Starship with the position open. After the USS Myogi needed a new Chief of Operations desperately, she was assigned the position. It was unusual for Ensigns straight out of the academy to get such a position, however her grades and skills were far sufficient for Starfleet Command to allow it. |
