Psychology

Peacekeeping * Worried * Supportive * Nosy

Sexuality: Heterosexual, but due to her natural disposition to concentrate on family matters, she doesn't care much about romance. Ace?
Relationship Status: Single.
Personality: Chandra is a down-to-earth individual--she appreciates the quiet things in life, and some would say she hardly makes a sound. Her favorite thing in the world is her family, and when somebody complains about their own, she can't fathom why. The fact of her mother's split away from her own family distresses her deeply, and she can't help but try and solve family matters, even when they don't concern her in the slightest. Chandra doesn't seem to realize that sometimes, her actions can hurt others instead of helping them--when something riles her up, she will worry about it for days, weeks, and even months. 

She enjoys making people sweets to cheer them up, and often makes them for her students. She loves children, and teaching seemed a perfect way to go. The idea that friends can be family is a little strange to her--in Indian culture, families are large, so the concept of "blood family" is relative, but she understands that some friends fill in the space that family should have been.   
Habits: Worrying/chewing on her lips, she's horrible with moisturizing so her lips get really chapped. Fiddles with her braid and has been known to chew on a stray piece of hair. 
Hobbies: Baking! She loves to make cake, pie, cream puffs, you name it. 
Fears: The nagging feeling that her life is about to fall apart, her family splitting and her having to choose between one or the other, failure in general.   

Likes: Baking, sweet things, peace and quiet, reading a good book, children, teaching.

Dislikes: Loud noises, arguments, divorces and the like, showing off, pride, flashy things.

Bio: Chandra has had a quiet life up to this point. She was only two years old when her parents moved from India to California, and she was privately homeschooled by her father, a well known biologist. Her family was a small but loving one, and when she grew old enough to make it on her own, she wasn't quite sure she wanted to. After job searches turned up nothing, she took a class for a teaching job and met a young woman whose family was desperately broken. Chandra, knowing nothing of tact or time and place, said a few words and ended up offending the girl, who stomped off in a rage. However, a few weeks later, she came back and actually thanked Chandra for her advice. It was a bit a strange coincidence, but since then she's had kids, teenagers, and even coworkers come to her for advice.

For now, she's focusing on teaching, but she'd like to become a counselor someday, particularly for families or children. 

Family: American father and Indian mother that broke the tradition of usual Indian arranged marriages, married and quickly moved overseas soon after Chandra was born. She doesn't remember much of India, but her mother misses the country dearly and has shown Chandra much of the culture. Has a large extended family on mother's side, but doesn't know them well. Only child.
