Personal History
Much of Jackie’s personal early history is unknown as she isn't fond of talking about her early years and her past for personal reasons.
All is known from her own words and actions, is the fact that she had always been fascinated by anything that flies, and had learned to pilot a shuttle once she was old enough to reach the control panels. Since joining StarFleet, Jackie had earned certifications to fly almost any type of starship and fighter in the fleet and even now tries to keep her skills up to date whenever possible.
All is known from her Starfleet record is ....
Her ability to multitask as well as being a workaholic had enabled her to manage a double post as a Wing Commander & Chief Tactical/Security Officer along the line of her 11+ year stint aboard the USS Rayden, under the command of Mark Harmon. She spent four years as a Tactical Officer, before landing a second post as Wing Commander for the duration of her posting there.
During her posting as a Tactical officer aboard the Rayden and after a particularly debilitating experience at the hands of Cardassians, with the help of Harmon, Jackie discovered the art of Klingon battle styles and combat techniques and thought that to be the best way to train herself as well as her staff. She now uses those to train herself and keep her skills up to date on almost every occasion she gets. She’s able to use a bat’leth in a holodeck environment but has not ventured outside of one preferring to keep that particular interest to herself. So far the Klingon styles have helped her hone in on her own hand to hand combat tactics and keep her edge in a face to face battle.
Jackie rarely resorts to using her claws as a weapon, however if she feels threatened or extremely angered by the enemy, there’s no telling what she can do to protect and fight for those around her. Jackie only uses her claws when the situation calls for it or when her instinct takes over and she completely gives into it and lets that lead. However, this happens very rarely as it is usually not a side she likes to display all too often, it is also not a sight a lot of people wish to observe, let alone be on the receiving end of the fury of the Caitian.
Jackie still strives to drive herself hard in order to stay in shape and keep her senses sharp and do the best she can. In her spare time, the Caitian can be found working hard in the holodeck homing in on her fighting skills in a variety of Klingon battle scenarios, keeping herself fit, testing out yet another manoeuvre during flight, or sharpening her aim.
She is still tempted to step into her old shoes and either step behind the helm of the Horizon or handle a security related problem on her ship as she’s still not fully used to being the Commanding Officer of a ship. To her flying the Horizon is something she enjoys doing and she feels relaxed and less unburdened by the tasks of a Commanding Officer when guiding the Intrepid across the space.
Shortly after her promotion to Captain, Jackie was surprised to find out she was being reassigned to Task Force 93 as its new Executive Officer. Setting course for Starbase 13, Jackie was even more astounded to have her ship stopped in the middle of their journey and have one man change her life and career in a dramatic way with a few commands. Her Executive Officer promoted to Captain and given his own command followed by her own promotion to Rear Admiral and given the reigns of Task Force 58 by one man who came aboard her ship to do so: Dan Taylor.
But that wasn’t all… shortly after their arrival to StarBase Bravo the Caitian found herself aboard the Astalder, unknown to her heading for Serenity base. Finding herself virtually kidnapped by Mr Taylor aboard the Astalder and given the choice to either attend or fight at the Fourth Annual betleH competition; Jackie chose to be a competitor and she hasn’t looked back at that decision since.
Her presence at the betleH tournament coupled with her choice to be a competitor ultimately was a life altering experience for the Caitian in more ways than one.

Klingon Fighting Styles - variety of combat styles, with weapons and without. She mostly kept the Klingon weapons-use restricted to the holodeck, but after the annual betleH tournament Jackie earned herself a betleH given to her by K’Hare during the Rogue 5 escapade; from then on she continued training. Over the years she's learned how to use the mekleH as well as a variety of other Klingon weapons.
