Personal History | Talanna Teela was born on an Orion trading vessel. The ship was not afforded the luxury of stopping or taking on additional medical personnel at the time. She was born into the life of a low caste clan working for an agricultural caj. Her early life involved tending to vineyards and packing freighters for transport. She grew up surrounded by a large family. She spent little time living on the Orion homeward of Vondem. Even while working fields there, she was bound to a ship ready to depart at a moment’s notice. She grew to pilot shuttles and freighters full of wine, produce and other assorted goods between the Alpha and Beta Quadrants. Enjoying some of the more relaxing ways of the Orion lifestyle were never in the cards for Talanna. She knew the best opportunity to advance her Caj was to join Starfleet. Flying became her passion since her first chance in the cockpit. It was only natural that she pursue a career in flight. Initial qualification testing marked Cadet Teela as a fighter pilot candidate. She showed great potential throughout her time in the Academy. Her records suggest she needs guidance and mentorship to reach her full potential post graduation. Ensign Teela has been given the challenging assignment of flying with Squadron A. There she will fly alongside the CAG and some of Starfleet’s most promising young pilots. |
