Biography:
I was born and raised on Planet Denver. In my youth I was never an academic, but I enjoyed the company of people and was very good with my hands. I graduated primary school and got a job working with light rotary machinery. The mines are all but used up on Denver, but there is a lot to be done for salvaging and it provided a paycheck. I didn’t grow up in a very rich family, you see. We weren’t poor, we had food on the table every meal. But we couldn’t afford luxury or vacations. That meant I could not get an advanced education. But, as luck would have it, a job opened up for a planetary shuttle service hauling miners and salvage workers to and from job sites.

I did that for a number of years before I found a job recruiter for an inter-stellar passenger service for some small outfit located in the New York system. Forgive me… it was such a long time ago. Hank’s Passenger Express… something or other. No matter. So, with what little I had, I packed up and shipped off to Newark Station. The outfit had the backing of Interspace Commerce and had an office on station. We would run passengers out from Newark or to and from system wide stations for various reasons… job rotations on stations, VIPs, executives. Well, at first I didn’t run the suits. I wasn’t qualified and certified yet. At first I just ran workers and the like. But, as time went on, I earned reputation enough to haul people wearing suits. Now I’m sure whoever is reading this application knows that people who wear suits and ties for a living expect only the utmost and best. And rightly so, frankly! They want their shuttles to be on time, a smooth ride to and from, and a landing as if the shuttle is a butterfly with sore feet. Smooth as glass, and I was! Only received 1 complaint in my years in service, but word down the grape vine is this particular lady was just that… particular.

That small outfit eventually was bought out, which actually worked out for me. Not only did I provide shuttle within the New York System, but outward as well! I started hauling passengers from California clear over to Texas, even high ranking military officials conducting diplomacy on Freeport 2 out in Bering. That was before the war and the Insurgency and that whole mess.
I did some job rotation and worked a few years as onboard passenger service. You may see in my work history that I was actually hired by Orbital Spa and Cruise as a dock host for a number of years, on and off. I did also try my hand running my own ship for passengers, mostly as an inter-system taxi service. It didn’t last long and I had to sell everything off to avoid filing for bankruptcy. Just a string of bad luck – some customers who didn’t pay, a ship that needed constant repair. I did learn how to disassemble and reassemble a light freighter engine myself! Oof, what a job that is.
Well, to make a long story short, I eventually found myself interested in the big ships those eh, cruise liners and such. I want to really explore Sirius and really bite my teeth into those unknown worlds beyond Liberty House. I finished my qualifications to pilot such a vessel, you should find my documents and certifications attached. As you can see, I have a rich history of passenger service, and I would certainly like to continue that!

Please give a brief overview of your past work experience if any.
As explained above, over 40 years of Inter-House passenger service piloting, on board hosting services, sole proprietor owner
