Katie Jacobson

Katrina Jacobson commonly called Katie Jacobson is a character invented by Shlomi Fish.

She is about the age of Jake Sisko, and was raised in Berkeley, California, and reportedly "could walk there (= to U.Cal Berkeley) from my house". Despite the proximity of Berkeley University she has opted to study Computer Engineering in the Technion. She graduated from their cum-laude, but considers herself mostly clueless in dealing with the hardware of computers (while still being a fully capable software engineer.)

Katie found a job as a programmer, while still remaining on Earth, writing open source software. However, then she concluded that life in the 25th century has so much more to offer, so she joined the Othello Task Force as a system adminstrator.
