Natasha or Tasha as she was more commonly known was born on Turkana IV, a failed Federation Colony. At the young age of five she was orphaned when both her parents were killed. The rest of her childhood was a chaotic battle to survive the rape gangs and to bring up her younger sister, Ishara.
To survive on Turkana Tasha had to adopt a fight or flight attitude as the planet was a heaven of lawlessness. Its this lack of law on her homeworld that instills in her a strong sence of justice. This sense of justice must motivate her into a career in Security once leaving Starfleet Academy.

Tasha enters Starfleet Academy in 2352 at the age of 15. After about 4 years she graduated and after standard posting Yar was assigned to The USS Enterprise on Captain Picards request after he saw her risk her life going through a Carnelian mine field to save a strandid colonist.
