She's 30 years old, native from the island and grew up with a very weathly family who wanted her to be a doctor or some sort of business professional. Instead she rebeled, went to community college and learned to weld. She has a small shop in town and does metal fabrication art. She still goes around her family but she's looked at as the black sheep since she didn't follow what they wanted. I'm thinking father is going to be Asian and mother is going to be originally from the island so that could open up a lot of ideas.
Copy and pasted, but that's pretty much what I got so far. We could totally brain storm some more if you're interested. How old are you thinking of making her?
