Personal History:
- Janice was born on February 28, 2357. Her older sister Willow was born on May 09, 2356 - less than ten months before Janice was born. The extended family thought that it was a cute coincidence so Janice and Willow's parents raised them as twins even though they were and still are completely different in every way. Janice grew up to physically resemble their grandmother Emily, while Willow resembles their mother. Their differences in temperament and personality are quite complementary.
- Janice and Willow grew up entirely in Boston. Willow graduated from high school in 2373 and Janice graduated from the same school a year later in 2374.
- In 2375, Janice returned to Boston after about a year of vacationing abroad, much to the chagrin of her grandparents. When pressured by her family to do something, as in 'get a job,' Janice decided that she could apply to get into Starfleet. Willow, on the other hand, was working in a civilian day care center in a local hospital since her high school graduation. It was Janice who suggested that they apply for SF academy together; it took little persuasion from Janice for Willow to agree with her and quit her current day job.


Academy:
- In 2375, Janice and Willow entered Starfleet Academy after passing their entrance exam in the first try. While Willow floundered about trying different subjects in their first year there, Janice found her 'calling' or area of expertise and decided to major in tactical. Eventually by second year, Willow gained a sense of direction and decided to become a psychologist - but yet again wanted to study several areas in that field. Janice's marks through out those years were average, except in tactical. Willow grew talented in two areas of psychology, which she majored in. Willow's talent for forensic psychology caused some of her instructors to consider studying security as well, so Willow minored in it.
- During her academy years, Janice travelled home to Boston during breaks between years and on special occasions - rarely socializing with her classmates during much of the year. As a result, Janice strengthened a rapport with her family during her stay in the academy.
- Both sisters graduated in 2379 with the rank of Ensign. Janice graduated in the upper 50% of her class while Willow graduated in the top 5% of her class . . . including her two majors and two of her minors that were related to psychology.
- After graduation, the sisters returned to Boston. There they celebrated Janice's birthday and their parent's silver wedding anniversary. Despite Willow's higher academic achievements, Janice received her orders for her first assignment first. Janice was assigned to Deep Space 15 which was a newly built space station. Willow received less exciting assignment hours later. Willow was to travel to the Jalnak colony to receive further training to become a Counsellor. The last time the sisters ever saw each other face to face was in San Francisco when Janice boarded the USS Toronto to leave for Deep Space 15.
