Hometown:
San Francisco, California, The United States
History:
Born to an upper middle class family in Presidio Heights, Arya lived her first years and attending both pre-school and elementary school in the Presidio area. Born into a family of police officers, with her father being the Deputy Chief of Police for the San Francisco area and her mother being a Captain with the Northern Station in the Metro Division. From an early age, Arya became fascinated with police work and she would often accommodate her father (or mother) to work when she had free from school. This interest would fade away during her teen years and it wasn’t until her mother was killed on duty that she would return and eventually become a police officer.
Arya attended the local elementary school and discovered that she was a quick learner. Throughout her first five years, she would rise to the top of her class and develop a keen interest in both literature and learning. It wasn’t uncommon for her to spend some of her spare time reading books and watching documentaries on the television. She developed an interest for politics, but she wouldn’t indulge her interest before she was in High School. Throughout her elementary school career, Arya had a hard time making friends and was often bullied and harassed for her glasses and for her early development (puberty). During her fifth year at Elementary school she met Sophie, a fellow “nerd” who had newly moved there from Los Angeles, and a friendship were quickly established. Arya and Sophie would be inseparable and lucky for them; they would attend the same Middle and High school.
As Arya came from a somewhat affluent family, she chose to attend the local Presidio Academy, a combined middle and high school. It was during these years that Arya developed both her interest in politics and her interest in boys, as puberty most often does. However, as many find themselves questioning their sexuality so did Arya, and during her second year of high school she and Sophie became girlfriends. This came as a shock to her conservative father and created tension between them, a tension that never fully recovered. During her high school years, Arya would also excel in her curriculum and many of her teachers would often site her as the perfect Ivy League candidate. But that was not what Arya was most proud of. Her social life, which had been quite limited during her years in elementary school, finally took off and she began to hang out with fellow students and teenagers more and more. And as her relationship with her father deteriorated, she used these moments to the fullest extend. It was also during this time she developed her taste in music, exploring both clubs and festivals with friends.
Arya graduated from the academy as one of the top 10s of her class and with her acceptance letter from the University of California, Los Angeles well secured, Arya set forth for a major in political science. Sophie had drafted herself into the military and after a futile attempt at a long distance relationship; they broke it off just three months into Arya´s freshman year at college. This presented itself with a major setback for Arya and she struggled with her studies as a result of that. After four weeks, she began dating a sociology student named Matthew, but this relationship didn’t bear any fruits.
During her fourth year at College, Arya´s mother was shot and killed while participating in a major drug bust in central San Francisco, an event that broke Arya completely. She discontinued her studies, mostly due to the lack of interest in the subject all together and returned to SF, trying to piece together her future. It would take six months of counseling and mindful training before Arya decided to take her mother´s position and become a police officer. She enrolled in the San Francisco Police Academy, passing the physical requirements with flying colors. After undergoing their psychological testing and motivational reason behind her application, Arya was finally accepted and started her training that same august.
Arya graduated her course at the San Francisco Police Academy just one year later, but were unable to find any job openings in the area. She decided to continue her search and return to Los Angeles, both because she found the city to be more to her liking, and to get away from the heavy burden San Francisco laid upon her following her mothers death. She was accepted and joined the ranks of the Los Angeles Police Department just 22 years old and has since then been working for the institution, hoping that one day she can specialize and become a detective.
