At fifteen, Kit graduates from secondary education at 15 at which time she also publishes her first series of articles in different magazines-this is when she drops Hennessey from her signature. She attends Harvard and graduates summa cum laude in three years with a BA in English and Earth History. She attends Columbia School of Journalism and afterward is hired by the Federation Dispatch, the Federation's leading source of news (the New York Times of the 24th century). At only 21 she is assigned to the front lines in the war against the dominion and sends back numerous articles chalk full of inside information and she often is found to have scooped top officials in Starfleet. Her in-depth war writing and powerful articles come to win her the 2376 Pulitzer Prize in Reporting.

After this she obtains a high and respected staff position and is assigned to cover the Federation Assembly (essentially the same as having White House press credentials). She covers this for a year and a half before deciding it was dull; she'd had the rush of being on the front lines and being stuck in a pressroom did not fulfill her expectations for her job. She puts in for a transfer and because of her connections in Starfleet and her close relationship with the top editors of the Dispatch, she gets assigned to the Galaxy to cover the trials and triumphs of the most well known ship and crew in Starfleet.

Jordan is highly energetic, though definitely has times of being down and depressed. She covers things through strong sarcasm and a constant joking manner. She is extremely charismatic and very manipulative. People try to avoid talking to her, but somehow she always manages to get the story. She is extremely observant and puts what she observes into her articles, wanting to bring a more human flair to them.
