She comes from money—her father's a wealthy guy—which probably gave her certain advantages growing up. But she's best known for her matter-of-fact way of speaking, the kind of elegant simplicity where she'll just say "I am" and mean it.
The big turning point in her life was a serious injury that cost her her right leg. Instead of letting that be the end of her story, she saw an opportunity: the military was offering state-of-the-art combat prosthetics. She enlisted, trading her comfortable background for a chance to get back in the game with actual hardware that could let her keep doing what she wanted to do.
That kind of pragmatism—taking a disaster and turning it into a recruiting pitch for yourself—tells you a lot about her character.
