| Personal History | The Early Years Alexander Rene Newman was born on July 17, 2370 to Michael and Jeanette Bowman. He was born in Twin Falls, Idaho. He was not really a fan of the dessert, and the warm summers that striked his hometown. From a young age, Alexander knew he wanted to join starfleet, to get off Earth. It was a very depressing planet. Everyone was grieving over the attack the dominion did, when he was a kid. He did not grasp the severity of the attack, he was young and shielded by naive youth personality. Alexander learned to resent a lot of the adults they were to focus on whining, when there was work that needed to be done. At a young age, he took up a lot of the house hold chores, and fixed a lot of gizmo's and gadgets. He found in his youth, that he liked fixing things. But he had a thrill for flying. He always thought he would grow up to be a pilot. Graduating High School Alexander graduated high school and applied to Starfleet Academy, as a fighter pilot, but his application was rejected. He failed the perception depth testing that was required for fighter pilots. Alexander was devastated, but did not want to give up on his dream. He decided to change fields and was accepted into engineering corps, at the academy. Prior to joining the Academy, Alexander had an interesting high school, he developed his cocky attitude, and started to show a little disrespect towards his peers and teachers, he believed he was smarter and better than most of them. His pride made him, cocky and arrogant. He always had a new girlfriend, but could not hold down a steady girlfriend. Alexander was not concerned, about his dating life. He knew that his future was head of him, and he could not be tied down to his home town. So he made a conscious effort, not to date, till after he completed the academy, so that way he can focus on his studies. The First Assignment: USS Lenovo After completing the academy, Alexander was assigned to the USS Lenovo as an Engineering Officer in 2391, he was arrogant and prideful. He resented the Assistant Chief Engineer. Alexander believed the man was incompetent and needed to be replaced. He was furious that his commanding officer, the chief engineer did not take his side. He did not believe that the chief engineer was incompetent, he was made that he did not see the potential in Alexander, and take his side. by 2392, he was promoted to Assistant Chief Engineer, and Lieutenant Junior Grade only because his predecessor failed in his duty, and was killed in the line of duty. A death that Alexander believed, should have never happened. He made it clear to all that if he was in charge, the assistant chief engineer would not have been killed. Despite the objection of the first officer and chief engineer of the USS Lenovo, the Captain appointed Alexander to Assistant Chief Engineer. Alexander's commanding officer rode him hard, and every time, Alexander rose to the challenge. There was no doubt in anyone's eyes, that he was a great engineer. However his pride and arrogance, and lack of remorse, was a concern. His commanding officer started to work with him, became his mentor, and by 2394, recommended him for promotion. |
