[hider=Amanda Cathrine Smith] [b]Name:[/b] Amanda Catherine Smith [b]Nickname:[/b] Annie [b]Age:[/b] 37 [b]Gender:[/b] Female [b]Nationality:[/b] Canadian [b]Appearance:[/b] [img]http://blogs-images.forbes.com/bruceupbin/files/2014/05/IMG_6136lowres.jpg[/img] Annie normally dresses in a female suit, both at home and at work. She basically lives in her suits. She feels the need to keep up a good outwards appearance for business contacts and for the sake of her reputation. She has also started dying her slowly fading hair color along with a good coat of makeup to hide blemishes and wrinkles. Annie stands at 176 cm tall and is of average body type, perhaps a bit on the thin side due to stress. [b]In-Depth Personality:[/b] She is a very driven woman and does everything she can for her company. This often leaves her daughter in the second seat for her attention since she spends a lot of time on the phone or in front of a computer at home. While she tries to spend time with her daughter she often has to reschedule something they agreed on earlier. A workaholic to the bone, and expects the same from her daughter, which she makes sure to tell her. [b]Character background:[/b] Ever since Annie was a young girl she has always worked very hard. Be it helping others, helping at home. In school with homework or helping other students to pass their exams. She never really sat down and relaxed. Always on the move, or buried in another book. She had always been influenced by leftover hippie culture from her parents. The talks about renewable energy, solar, grow it yourself. Her parents were always free spirited. Live life in the now and hard work. This drew her into sustainable engineering and agriculture development. She was always drawing this or that design for a house or another building, landscaping. She took some preperational classes in highschool before attending college, studying to become what she wanted to be. During her last year of high school she got pregnant but still finished her studies. The father was not interested in a child and broke up with her. Annie has had a hard time balancing work and studies along with being a single mother, but it has worked out somewhat. This did not stop her though as she went deeper into engineering studies and tried her best to balance work and family, but this ment hiring a caretaker along with working most of the time that she was not in school to keep the income up. She started her own company about the same time. Providing smart and economical solutions to household problems. Selling solar panels, counseling people on how to live green and self-sufficient, garden and landscaping. A few years back her business really took off, leaving her daughter with a nanny most of the time, even sometime when she is working from home. She has become quite successful in her business, but it's taking a toll on her. And deprives her daughter from a lot of family time.
