Born on April 1st 1986, Estella Rowyn Moretti is the middle daughter of college school sweethearts: Vincent, a neurologist, and Selah Knowles, a comparative literature professor. Always having been quite the precocious and curious child, it was clear to her parents that she would be the one who would give them a run for their money. With Estella, they were never sure what they would get because every week she found herself being interested in something new. For instance, when she was ten she decided that she was going to become a world class ballerina and would spend hours practicing on the barre she begged her father to put up in the attic. the ballerina phase only lasted a few months when she discovered her love for music and decided to take up playing an instrument, which like ballet only kept her interested for no longer than a couple of weeks. but nothing compared to the time when she decided that she wanted to become a theater performer and spent weeks perfecting her various accents and dialects and stocking up on beret’s. she was so committed to the idea that she even spoke in those accents in school, it had gotten to the point to where she’d become disruptive in class and her parents had to be called in. that eventually ended the days of self-re-inventions as far as she was concerned.

As a teenager, Stella, as she preferred to be called, was just as strong-willed as she was beautiful, but she never let it get to her head. Although she ran with the popular crowds, she could not have been more unlike them due to the fact that she didn’t find any problem befriending those who weren’t in her group. high school was typical enough, when she wasn’t working she was hanging out with her friends, catching up on all of the latest gossip and fashion trends; even getting into a little trouble now and then.

College was an experience altogether. It was the first time that she was away from home and out from under the watchful eye of her parents, who would have preferred that she stayed closer to home like her older brother, but she wasn’t having any of it. Stella craved the freedom that she felt she could only achieve in an out of state school. Having been blessed with brains to go along with the beauty, Stella was able to attend pretty much any college of her choosing, but it was the allure of California that won her over. In the fall of 2003, Stella moved across the country to start her freshman year at the University of Southern California as a pre-med major. If she was looking to find herself throughout the years she spent as an undergrad; she was able to found that and more. College gave her a chance to discover that she’d much rather attend social events than spend her time studying and/or discussing drug contraindications. By the time she finished her sophomore year she’d been in and out more relationships than she could bear to remember, had seen her fair share of the insides of tattoo parlors and could drink most military men under the table. Somehow she managed to graduate school with grades good enough to extend her collegiate career on a graduate level. Being accepted in medical school meant that she could continue to live her life the way she saw fit and at the time that meant working as a bartender at some popular club, while juggling both a girlfriend and a boyfriend, both of which were her roommates at some point in her life. As far as she saw it, life was good. Her parents, on the other end, made it perfectly clear that this was not the life they wished for their daughter and fearing that her behavior would spiral out of control, they demanded that once she obtained her degree that she would have to move back to New York, otherwise she’d be cut off.

An attempt that was supposed to “set her straight” only made her want to rebel more. Before long, grad school was completed and the time had come for her to make a decision. In fact, her parents were so sure that she’d be coming home with them after graduation that they bought her plane ticket home. After thinking it over, she figured that there wasn’t any harm in going back home for a few weeks. However, what she had in mind and what they had in mind was completely different. Where they had expected her to enroll immediately medical school, she decided that she wanted to take time off to see the world and just enjoy life. And she did just that. For two years, she lived the life a modern aged nomad; immersing herself in various cultures and living as the people of those countries did.

Currently, her quest for excitement and adventure has lulled, and she is finally ready to finish what she started by setting to start her residency program this fall.

personality
As an ESTP, your primary mode of living is focused externally, where you take things in via your five senses in a literal, concrete fashion. Your secondary mode is internal, where you deal with things rationally and logically. ESTPs are outgoing, straight-shooting types. Enthusiastic and excitable, ESTPs are "doers" who live in the world of action. Blunt, straight-forward risk-takers, they are willing to plunge right into things and get their hands dirty. They live in the here-and-now, and place little importance on introspection or theory. The look at the facts of a situation, quickly decide what should be done, execute the action, and move on to the next thing.
ESTPs have an uncanny ability to perceive people's attitudes and motivations. They pick up on little cues which go completely unnoticed by most other types, such as facial expressions and stance. They're typically a couple of steps ahead of the person they're interacting with. ESTPs use this ability to get what they want out of a situation. Rules and laws are seen as guidelines for behavior, rather than mandates. If the ESTP has decided that something needs to be done, then their "do it and get on with it" attitude takes precendence over the rules. However, the ESTP tends to have their own strong belief in what's right and what's wrong, and will doggedly stick to their principles. The Rules of the Establishment may hold little value to the ESTP, but their own integrity mandates that they will not under any circumstances do something which they feel to be wrong.
ESTPs have a strong flair for drama and style. They're fast-moving, fast-talking people who have an appreciation for the finer things in life. They may be gamblers or spendthrifts. They're usually very good at story telling and improvising. They typically makes things up as they go along, rather than following a plan. They love to have fun, and are fun people to be around. They can sometimes be hurtful to others without being aware of it, as they generally do not know and may not care about the effect their words have on others. It's not that they don't care about people, it's that their decision-making process does not involve taking people's feelings into account. They make decisions based on facts and logic.
The ESTP needs to keep moving, and so does well in careers where he or she is not restricted or confined. ESTPs have a natural abundance of energy and enthusiasm, which makes them natural entrepreneurs. They get very excited about things, and have the ability to motivate others to excitement and action. The can sell anyone on any idea. They are action-oriented, and make decisions quickly. All-in-all, they have extraordinary talents for getting things started. They are not usually so good at following through, and might leave those tasks to others. Mastering the art of following through is something which ESTPs should pay special attention to.
ESTPs are practical, observant, fun-loving, spontaneous risk-takers with an excellent ability to quickly improvise an innovative solution to a problem. They're enthusiastic and fun to be with, and are great motivators. If an ESTP recognizes their real talents and operates within those realms, they can accomplish truly exciting things.
