Psychological Profile: Report of Starfleet Medical/Counselor's Office

An old buddy of Captain Archer's and renowned as a gifted orbital engineer, "Trip" is a charming Southerner with an offbeat sense of humor who is always on the hunt for the next big adventure. Whether it's deep-sea diving, constructing starships in orbit, or interspecies dating, Trip is good to go. Trip is the third senior officer on Enterprise, but he's a "fish out of water" when dealing with new civilizations.
