Background:
Born into an asteroid mining community, he grew up learning how to handle all the maintenance and fabrication headaches associated with a remote outpost and a family run business. Holds a Class "A" Miner's permit, and a Class "A" blasting permit. Left the family business to attend a university. From there, with a degree in Aerospace engineering (specializing in starship armament and sensory dynamics), he signed onto a tramp freighter, gradually studying for and passing the exams necessary to get his Merchant Engineer's ticket.
Was serving as chief engineer on a tramp freighter registered in Klingon space when he earned his nickname (jonwI' sop Hoch, or that darn engineer eats EVERYTHING!).
Financial problems with that ship led the Captain to try to turn to piracy to make ends meet, the effort being thwarted by the ship's executive officer, of Vulcan extraction, and the ship's Chief Engineer. Recovering in the hospital after that particular incident, he met the lady who was to become his wife.
Returned to the family business until his father was killed in a mining accident. When the ore body played out, the business was disbanded, his mother retired to Cait.
Khajja then decided to enter Starfleet, something he saw as a moderately safe place to practice his skills as an engineer. Obviously he anticipated working in a spacedock facility . . . his orders to report to the FELIX were a bit of a surprise . . . His wife, a nurse, works in the ship's sick bay.
Character Notes:
He and Lanna have an on-going practical joke war.
