Personality & Traits
| General Overview | Bridget is fiercely independent. It is one of the reasons she has never married. While she has not had a shortage of relationships, her need for independence eventually drives suitors away. She is intensely stubborn unless she sees good reason for compromise. While this has gotten her in trouble at times, she has, more recently, learned the necessity of reigning in her stubbornness and has become quite good at doing so when necessary. She is an introvert who has learned, over her lifetime, how to speak her mind and how to get by in a workplace and on a starship where space and privacy is at a premium. However, she still values her alone time and particularly hates when it is interrupted. | |
| Strengths & Weaknesses | Strengths: Loyal, intelligent, ability to speak her mind, fair Weaknesses: Difficulty opening up to new people, tendency to push people away with her need for independence |

| Hobbies & Interests | reading, martial arts, languages |
| Personal History | Bridget grew up on Earth in Dublin, Ireland with her parents, Ida and Sean, and siblings, Finn and Regan. Bridget is the youngest of her siblings. There is a 3 year difference between her and Finn, and 1.5 between her and Regan. Being the youngest, there was always someone looking out for her which led to her desire for independence. She has been training in the martial arts since a young age, much to the chagrin of her siblings, and has become a master in many different martial arts. Although she always enjoyed math and science, she was never much good at either of them; languages, however, came easily to her. By the time she was old enough to take the test for Starfleet Academy, she had already learned 3 languages. At the Academy, she excelled at learning other languages and quickly set her sight on developing a career in translation and interpretation. | |
