Maria Alejandra Reyes (March 13, 2034 - November 15, 2128) was a Carinansian politician, businessman, lawyer and soldier who served as the Vice President of Carinansia from 2113 to 2117. She previously served as chief executive officer of the law firm Reyes Sobong, one of the wealthiest and most prestigious in the country. Before that, she was a member of the Serene Strategic Support Force as a hacker for over twenty years, involved in several cyber assault operations against states hostile to the Serenacy.
The daughter of two Valoran working-class parents in modern-day Sierna Sur, she was one of the country's most prolific and notorious lawyers throughout her legal career; culminating in the incorporation of Reyes Sobong, which was one of the country's largest at the time.
Early life and education
Maria Alejandra Reyes was born on March 13, 2034, at the San Rodrigo General Hospital in Baragado, in modern-day Sierna Sur, but which was at the time a part of the recently-annexed Valora Territory. She was the fourth child of Oscar Reyes, and Yvonne Reyes. She lived in Baragado with her parents until the age of 4, when they divorced. She moved to Punto Banderas, São Lenoas, shortly afterwards with her father, who became employed as a dock worker for Curbelo, S.A. shortly after arriving. From ages 5 to 12, she attended Deria Grade School, and from 13 to 18, she attended Hugo Carita Public High School. She had four siblings in total, including Oscar Reyes, Roberto Reyes, Isidora Sainz, and Javier Reyes, who died in a car crash aged 14.
Selcent
Upon graduating from high school, she applied to Selcent, initially eager to serve in the Serene Army as a military officer, but shifting focus to the Serene Strategic Support Force after only a couple weeks attending. Her teachers have stated she was an exemplary student throughout her time there, with her academic records revealing she only earned one B throughout her time there. Upon graduating with a Bachelor of Science, she enlisted in the service as an officer cadet.
Military service and legal education (2056-2084)
Military service
Reyes underwent the ten-week officer training course which was at the time standard for cadets at the Serene Strategic Support Force, receiving the rank of Sublieutenant after the conclusion of the training. For her entire military career, she was a part of the 13th Cyber Assault Unit, which was a nascent military unit when she first enlisted, but became one of the most-feared cyber attack units by the time she was discharged.
Revolutionary College of Oligi
After receiving an honourable discharge in March 2078, she received a Serene Armed Forces scholarship to attend the prestigious law program at the Revolutionary College of Oligi. When she received a Bachelor of Laws in 2081, she continued her legal studies at the school, receiving a Master of Laws in 2084. Upon entering the legal work force, she received an associate position at Carmen Barrios Quesada, where she remained for five years.

In 2089, Reyes chose to resign from CBQ, preferring to run her own law firm. Upon incorporation, she poached several of her old clients from her previous company, as the company was facing financial insolvency amid allegations of corruption and collusion with the prosecutor general of Plaimo Province.

Relationships
Reyes married Yung-A Moruga on February 25, 2059, whom she had met during her time at Selcent, and was a longtime friend of hers. As a member of the Serene Army, Moruga was ultimately discharged from the armed service in 2080 as a Brigadier General, having participated in several tours of Koelasia during the Koelasian Wars, including combat in Arcadia, Uatederstali, and Nora. After being discharged, Moruga attended the graduate dentistry program at the State University of Voclaria on an armed forces scholarship. Upon graduation, she received employment as a dentist in Reydacay, where Reyes was studying.
