Entering High School at the age of 8 and graduating by 14 Siobhan decided to take a year off from her studies - a year that turned into three years! Between the ages of 14 and 17 she travelled - both with her parents - and without them, when her father had to return to Earth for an operation, and her mother accompanied him. Working her way around the safer parts of the Alpha Quadrant during the last year of her travels, Siobhan decided that she'd like to go back to school, and saved enough money to return to Earth where she stayed briefly before applying and being accepted at the United Federation of Planets University on Mars where she studied both Alien Psychology, and Federation Law. Upon graduating from UFPU at the age of 21 she applied to Starfleet Academy, and was accepted. Majoring in Operations and minoring in Engineering Kavanagh's tutors soon recognised her potential, and by the end of her first year she was transferred to the 'fast track' command program. Graduating in the top 15% of her year, and the top 5% of her class, Siobhan was posted to Utopia Planetia Ship Yards as an assistant Operations Officer, and quickly promoted to Lieutenant. She has progressed steadily through the ranks throughout her career. Despite her natural 'fun loving' character, Siobhan takes her career very seriously and is totally dedicated to Starfleet. She doesn't have much success with relationships because her partners can't usually take coming second to her career. PSYCHOLOGICAL PROFILE: Siobhan is a strong, confident, independent woman who knows what she wants - and apparently how to get it. She likes to come across as completely fearless, which for the most part seems to be true, however, she does have one or two phobias... Spiders, and Snakes. She finds this weakness very irritating, however, even with the help of hypnosis she has yet to overcome her phobia, and she can't even look at a spider without having nightmares for a week! HOBBIES/INTERESTS: Siobhan cites music and reading as two of her favourite hobbies. She especially likes old Earth Thrillers, but will read almost anything - inlcuding Cardassian and Romulan novels. She finds Vulcan writing a bit boring as there is no emotion involved. When she was 10 she once learned all the Ferengi Rules of Acquisition - and watch out because she's still known to recite some of them from time to time! She enjoyed her time on the 'First Contact' teams, and still keeps up with all the first contact procedures and protocols as well as the situations that are current. She would like to return to 'First Contact' when she reaches Captain or Admiral and command her own first contact missions - although she prefer's the research involved to the actual first contact situation. Her attention to detail, and proven dedication to Starfleet makes her an ideal candidate for such work. Siobhan starts her day with an early morning swim - followed by an aerobic work out if the has the time. She enjoys exercising and has found that its a great way to channel her energy when she's stressed, nervous or angry. She was a member of both the UFPU and Academy Paresis Squares teams - and still enjoys a good game, although she can't play as often as she'd like now due to a leg injury she received during a game a couple of years ago. NRPG BACKGROUND MATERIAL: Siobhan's 'mother' was a career woman - a non-Starfleet doctor working on Earth, happily married to her childhood sweetheart, who, at the age of 50 thought her chance of having a family had passed her by - until one of her patients - a young heavily pregnant woman by the name of Tessa Jordan died unexpectedly in childbirth, leaving behind a daughter with no one to care for her. Feeling partly responsible for the infants mother's death - and in the absence of any known family Dr Kavanagh, and her husband William adopted the baby. Taking to motherhood like a duck to water Caroline took early retirement just before Siobhan's first birthday. Obviously Siobhan knows she is adopted, although she's never shown any interest in trying to find any of her blood relatives. She adores both of her adoptive parents, and they share a very close relationship. She's not at all touchy about the subject, and its no secret either - although she probably wouldn't share the information with anyone but close friends, or someone she thought it would benefit knowing. She would like a family of her own someday, although she doesn't know if this is likely as she admits she doesn't think she could tolerate a relationship long term being as she likes her independence too much. She has very many friends, and people can't help but like her. As a commander she is relaxed - a very natural leader, who always manages to remain calm in a crisis. She is very fair, but won't take any crap - and she would never ask anyone to do anything she wasn't willing to do herself.
