Personality & Traits

General Overview		T'sen prides herself on being professional at all times, even when off-duty. Some would call her cold, but those would be the sort of people who are not as professional as she is. The best kind of relationship you can hope for with T'sen is a 'good working relationship'.
Strengths & Weaknesses		Her clarity of thought is acute, even for a Vulcan. In the past, she's been able to make decisions in crisis situations with a steady and steely resolve. This can, however, lead to the kind of thinking where the needs of the few are discarded in favour of the needs of the many.
Ambitions		With her elevation to her current position, T'sen appears satisfied.
Hobbies & Interests		She regularly practices meditation, and owns one of the meditating lamps that formerly belonged another Vulcan Starfleet officer and Federation Ambassador, Spock. The little bronze lamp dates from the late 23rd century, making it over a century old.

Personal History		T'sen entered the Academy a few years later than her contemporaries, but that did not stop a meteoric rise through the rank of Starfleet over the next thirty years. Graduating as an Operations officer, she spent 16 years on various starbases and starships before becoming a first officer. After spending 7 years cutting her teeth on the bridges of starships, serving through the Seventh War of Retribution, she gained her first command. After two successful tours as a CO, she moved into management, becoming responsible for thousands of personnel and dozens of starships before moving to Starfleet Command. Her advancement was stymied when Richard Edgerton rose to power, as Humans were given preference for promotion. T'sen considered resigning from Starfleet, but managed to avoid persecution by simply being as quiet as possible and conducting numerous inspection tours of various Starfleet facilities. Although having never experienced racism from her Starfleet colleagues, she was occasionally subjected to it on Earth and other colony worlds during the Neo-Essentialist crisis. While she does not blame all Humans for the actions of some, she does support the idea of reform in the Federation to curb the power of Humans. The pinnacle of her career was achieved in 2431, when she was nominated and approved as Head of Starfleet Operations.
