Horizon had a falling-out with her parents when she chose her major, as her parents wanted her to become a veterinarian or a lawyer with a focus in environmental law.

This is one of the specific instancescomplaints that had spurred her to use ‘H. Elizabeth’ or just ‘Elizabeth’ in most of her dealings with others.
 
As an intern at Morgendorffer Consulting, Horizon receives full coverage on her college tuition and fees, a small salary, one-third reimbursement on work-related clothing and the use of a company car.

Horizon has a great amount of respect for Jake because he has respect for her and her skills, and she has developed a slight crush on him, which he hasn’t noticed. In The Winters Of Those Gone Before, Horizon attends Jake’s funeral and breaks down in tears during the service, indicating that her feelings for Jake may have become more pronounced.
