Editing Olen Rhinehart (section)

==Hobbies==

Rhinehart is generally more interested in intellectual pursuits than physical. He is a quick study, and keenly interested in all branches of knowledge, although his specialities are philosophy, theology and psychology. He enjoys writing - although his relationship with his keyboard is sometimes fractious - and is currently working on a secret literary project in which he unburdens some of the angst he often feels towards himself. He is a connoiseur of tea, and spends inordinate amounts of time grooming his beard, of which he is justifiably proud. He is currently pursuing a psychology PhD by way of intermittent subspace contact with the Institute of Tellarite Excellence.

Socially, he feels he has missed the boat somewhat, in terms of cementing informal bonds of friendship with his crewmates, although it is apparent that he has earned the professional respect of most. Meanwhile, his romantic life continues be bumpy: After his on-again off-again frisson with Lt Cdr [[Brianna Frazier]] ended with her injury and subsequent abrupt transfer from the crew, he found himself growing closer to his assistant counsellor [[Dorga 'cha Nooras]] following their mind-meld. The possibility of a relationship seemed nullified, however, when cha'Nooras was promoted to second officer of the [[USS Boudicca]] and transferred before Rhinehart could summon up the courage to share his feelings. As of this writing, he remains single.
