Born on stardate 2381.01.15 in Kansas City, Kansas. His mother was a homemaker, and his father was a pipe fitter. When he was 5, his parents divorced and he lived with his mother until he moved out to attend college. He never saw his father again.

Traveled all the time with his mother. That is why he was home schooled because he was never in one place long enough to attend traditional school. He did however develop an appreciation for the history of all the different places he had been to.

He attended Hardy-Knox University and received a Degree in History with a minor in literature.

After graduation, he enlisted in Starfleet in order to pay-off all his school loans.
