Personality & Traits

General Overview		Gregory almost seems a bit on the Ditzy scale as he has his mind on many things, in truth he is very intelligent and it is his imagination and creative thinking that are constantly running his mind at full tilt. He can seem intense as he is focused on the task at hand; he is driven to complete things to get them out of his mental lists, and this comes over in his 'play ' as well. Gregory has an intense mind that changes focus as he gets bored; it shows his diversity in the way he act. While relaxing he will be sure of his attire; very aware of those around him and keeping himself sociable but above all else a pretty woman captivates him and draws a lot of his focus. HIs work ethic is fully in place as well as his need to relax outside work. He can seem vain by some standards if one does not understand the man himself, he is an intense persona hidden under casual guise. What throws off the majority of people is Gregory's detail minded; he wants to make sure everything is easily 'tied up at the loose ends' and can focus too much in that end. He tends to catch small probelms which is good in trouble shooting but can be less helpful in other realms of his life.

Personal History

Gregory was the youngest of his siblings, thus caught more of the razzing than any other child. All his siblings have done well for themselves and it drives Gregory to achieve more. In school he managed a b+ average finding that the academics were not quite stimulating enough to keep him occupied except in his artistic classes where his sketching talent gained him extra notice. He blended his style when he took technical training and could create very detailed drawings rivaling the computer models. The only drawback was the time to draw compared to sketch. He learned very quickly how to use the Drafting programs and even how to inflect his style through that venue. His Parents were proud when he earned a place in the Engineering Department of a local firm while still attending school. He used the skills of his drafting along with his artistic to do full portfolios; drafting the plans then doing the concept drawings with finer detail that cannot be done on a drafting program. While working for the firm there was a problem with a power flow matrix and Gregory was part of a team that had to ride with the Merchant Star Ship to diagnose the problem. Gregory found the problem and designed a new 'connection to better control the power flow. While earning his accolades he fell in love with star ships. After graduation rather than following a Civilian trail he went to Star Fleet; he wanted to be on a Star SHip making it go faster and farther. Excelling he was attempted to be Drafted by Daystrom but wanted space Time first. HE graduated in the top ten of his class and any assignment where he got to play with engines was fine with him. The USS Merimac had him on the cadet cruise; Gregory came to his own earning him a Team lead position as he cooly went through his testing and duty rotations. He worked well with fellow cadets and his team had the highest productivity of the cruise. His first assignment as an Engineer came with the USS London; he worked diligently on the older vessel; his skills at design and fabrication helped keep his repair detail up to the level above others. He had often 'drafted' a replacement and replicated it as modified to fit where the worn part had failed. Got an accomidation for incentive and outside problem solving. The Uss Pheonix came along and with a new vessel Gregory pushed and all but pleaded to be on a newer class of vessel; the thought of 'finding and fixing the 'Bugs' just appealed to him. He was transferred as an Engineer and Shift Lead.
