Cristina studied hard all during high school and headed to university to receive her doctorate in Biochemistry. She got accepted into Stanford’s medical program and graduated at the top of her class. Cristina was then accepted into Seattle Grace’s intern program and hasn’t looked back since. Despite her hard demeanour, she feels thing immensely but choices to hide that. She’s been dubbed “robot” by her peers but she tries not to let it bother her.

Plastic Surgery, Sub-speciality in Craniofacial surgery & Pretty Boy

 Traits:

✓ Brave, Forgiving & Determined

✘ Headstrong, Arbitrary & Importunate

Background:

Jackson Avery started off her internship at Seattle’s Mercy West hospital joining Seattle Grace when the Merger happened, luckily for Jackson he didn’t bring shame on the Harper Avery foundation by being one of the Residents that got cut during the staff cuts that took place during that time.

Jackson Avery grew up in Boston, son of world renowned Urologist Katherine Avery, and Grandson of surgical nobility Harper Avery, founder of the Harper Avery foundation. It was tough growing up under the scrutiny of such a prestigious medical family – it was almost a birth right that everyone baring the name Avery would be bound for medical greatness, yet despite hearing of the medical wonders around his grandfathers’ dinner table his family never pushed him too hard, his whole life he had been told how “pretty” he was, his cousin and sister were the smart ones, their school reports always read straight A’s whilst Jackson struggled to keep up.

By the Time College came around he had learned to push himself that little further determined to prove to everyone that he was more than just a pretty face, he aced him MCATs without telling anyone he was even sitting them, worked his ass off at Medical school and secured a spot at Mercy West Surgical Residency Programme in Seattle, much to his mother’s distain, who spent the first few years of Jackson’s career trying to convince him to come back to Boston to complete his Residency there, but Jackson was determined to do it all off his own Merit and not his name sake.

Jackson has never really had much luck in love, after a fleeting romance with Lexie Grey Jackson found himself once again single, and confiding in his best friend April Kepner – but was that all him and April would ever be?
