Personal History
Geordi was born blind to a command officer and a exozologist in 2335. His parents were always on the move during his childhood. At one point he was with his father in the Modean system studying invertebrates and was on an outpost with his mother near the romulan neutral zone another time.
Before his stint on the Enterprise-D Geordi was Captain Picard's pilot on an inspection tour. Picard requested that Geordi be on his next command after Geordi stayed up all night to correct a problem the captain mentioned in an off hand remark. Geordi spent the early years of his career as a helm officer before transferring to engineering.
In 2372, Starfleet launched a vessel assigned to the newley created Starfleet Corps of Engineers, the USS daVinci under Captain Gold. Geordi was promoted to Commander and reassigned to the as Second Officer. Unlike most Second Officers Geordi does not double as a department head but serves as a liason between the engineers and the command staff.
