Name: Joseph Hayden
Age: 26
Position: SG-7
Rank: Civilian (economic geologist/sedimentologist)
Appearance: Just over six feet tall. Average build. Dark brown hair, brown eyes.
Personality: Easy-going. Tends to look for the best in a bad situation. Dry sense of humor. Intelligent. Sometimes just a little too trusting of others.
History: Born and raised just outside the town of Clear Falls in northern Minnesota. Attended the local small town public high school, where he graduated salutatorian of his class of 49 students. Attended Minnesota State University on a partial scholarship, majoring in geology with a minor in chemistry. Worked part-time at the school’s rec center. In his senior year as an undergraduate, he became a teaching assistant; it was this initial experience that made him realize he never wanted to teach professionally.
Joe had a keen interest in sedimentology and stratigraphy. His advisor, a former petroleum geologist, helped land him a job with the L&J mining company after graduation. About a year later he took a leave of absence from the company to return to school to pursue a Master’s Degree. He eventually returned to L&J for part of his thesis, “Environmentally-conscious mining: the Hayden-Sauk Method,” to have been published in the September 2005 Economic Geology.
The Hayden-Sauk Method caught the eye of Stargate Command, who was attempting to secure rights to mine trinium on PS9-929. The local inhabitants refused access to the trinium until they were assured mining would not harm the local wildlife. After Dr. Michele Sauk declined to participate in negotiations citing personal issues, Joe was tapped to demonstrate his method to the people of PS9-929. He remained offworld to help direct the mining efforts, until the call was received for all SG teams to rendezvous at the Alpha Site.
