Biography

Our character was born in Austin, TX, from an American man who married a woman from Tarragon, Spain. They met while the American was on vacation in Spain. The marriage lasted 10 years, then her father was caught cheating on her mother, and the pair was divorced. The character was 7 at the time, and her mother moved them back to Spain so she would have family support to raise her girls. The oldest child, a boy, stayed with his father.

The character did well in school, and went on to university, studying nursing and gaining both her DEU and a BSN. Because of a glut in the nursing profession in Spain, she went back to the States to work, settling in Brownsville, and reuniting with her father and older brother. It was from here that she spent her summers working with Doctors Without Borders. Her next-younger sister contracted breast cancer, and she returned to Spain to help care for her. (The sister recovered fully.) She met a young man, (Name here), who she began to date. They were engaged to marry, but he broke it off when courted by an older woman of better financial means. Between this and a lack of work for nurses, she decided to look for a more stable job elsewhere.

Entry to the story

She decides to look for a stable job, and answers the ad the Tracys put out for a nurse to replace Nikki. Her work with Doctors Without Borders is what makes her stand out.
