History
Personal History | Lexi was born on a fringe colony near the Klingon border. Life was not easy on these fringe worlds, but Lexi learned to survive. She also learned the love of fixing things from her mother who was the chief engineer of the colony. She would often tag along with her mother and watch her work, asking thousands of questions about how the things her mother was fixing worked. Eventually, as she got older, she began helping. In high school, she met the young man she thought she would love forever, Nicholas Barrows. They dated all through high school and married right after. Unfortunately, this marriage was doomed. Just before Lexi left to join Starfleet, he died when a building collapsed. He had been trying to get those inside to safety, but had not made it out himself. She fell apart for several weeks, but in the end, she went on to Starfleet. He would have wanted her to pursue her dreams, she believed. |
