Juliette Keyes/Hooks

• Awkwardness: Juliette is, to put it nicely, inadequately socialized. She doesn't have a good sense of when things are appropriate to say and when they aren't, and she doesn't consider it rude to just look over your shoulder and ask what you're doing. Which ... could be good or bad.

• Computer Nerdery: Although she's not really the computer scientist of the family (that's her sister Lucy), she's still very gifted by the standards of any normal person. And she has strong ideas about freedom of information -- which is to say, if she needs information, she has no qualms about going and getting it, whether she's "supposed" to have it or not.

• Family: Juliette has five sisters and one half-sister, all of whom are exceptional engineers or scientists of some variety in their own right. If you're heavily involved in one of their specialties, you may know of or perhaps have met one of them. The family includes Lucy (computer science), Marie (pure mathematics), Aurelia (electrical engineering), Kyra (biology), Emily (chemistry), and their half-sister Allie (human psychology).

• Fixing Things: Most of her job is on the design side rather than the construction side. But sometimes the only way to test your ideas is to build something yourself, so when necessary, she can build a autonomous dune rover out of spare parts, or repair anything from a refrigerator to a 747.

• Smart People: If you're exceptionally bright and she picks up on it, she'll be very interested in you, and may try to convince you to consider employment with Lehr & Associates if you show even the slightest interest.

• Space!: One of the few things Juliette is really passionate about is space exploration. Are you interested in the Final Frontier? She's up to date on all the latest news from NASA and around the world.
