Pathi Monteyan

Doctor Pathi Monteyan was a female Nei educator and diplomat in the Golden Empire.

Born on Irimor during the Great Liberation, Pathi grew up with an interest in science. She earned a place in the University of Chorrdo and received a degree in physics, with a secondary concentration in mathematics. Though encouraged to pursue graduate study, Pathi instead applied to the Educational Expansion Corps. Despite her lack of graduate education, the recruiters were impressed with her enthusiasm and volunteer work in school and elected to hire her.

Pathi spent the next two decades working on the front lines of the Empire's expansion, working with both the most intelligent scientists and average citizens on newly acquired worlds. She received constantly positive reviews from her superiors, though she initially passed on a promotion to a supervisory role in order to continue her work. Studying by distance in her spare time, she earned a doctorate in physics and advanced degrees in mathematics and astrophysics.

The second time she was recommended for promotion, her superiors made it clear they would not accept "no" for an answer. Pathi became first a regional and then sector supervisor. In 149 ABY she was appointed Director of the Educational Expansion Corps by the Minister of Education. Less than two years later, in respect for both her achievements and her distinct understanding of the work of the Empire on its systems, Queen Rin Sakaros also appointed her to the Sovereign's Council.
