Basic information
Assignment
Lieutenant Ethan Scott Kessel is a Federation Starfleet officer serving the 11th Fleet in the latter half of the 24th century aboard the USS Highlander as Chief Engineer.

History

He was born on Titan, one of Saturn's Moons, so is no stranger to Space travel. His Mother died in childbirth, and he was raised by his father. He went to school, and studied hard there, before joining Starfleet.

He studied physics at New-Oxford High school, before studying at Starfleet Academy. He passed the engineering exams almost flawlessly, but did not do so well in Command, due to his lack of ability in delegating responsibly to his subordinates.

During his Time at Star Fleet Academy, he established himself, as a skilled engineer, and a Competent Officer, however, he distanced himself away from situation when he had to give out order, preferring to rely on himself, and his own skill, than those of a person he knew nothing about.

While at Starfleet, he made friend, found love, lost it, the usual story of any University aged Student. Having turned his sights on study Trans-Monocular theory and Nuclear Synthesis, he studied the works of Famous Nuclear Physicists, and published research on the relationship between Century old Alchemy and the Particle experiments of the modern world. Although hardly world renowned, he became a local authority with his fellow students, and enjoyed life as a well liked, well respected Engineer, who many anticipated would achieve great things in a Starfleet Laboratory, studying the Mysteries of the building blocks of Space and Time.

So it was with great surprise when he announced his intention to full graduate as an officer, and serve aboard a USS Starship, in order to allow his skills directly contribute Starfleet.

Although devastated that he would rather spend time "Zooming around the Galaxy" then continue to study with him, his Lecturer and Mentor, Professor Albert Rubedo used his influence to ensure that he would eventually be posted on a ship that he considered deserving of his prodigies’ talent - The USS Endeavour - Which came to pass upon his graduation.
