Star Fleet Medical Academy
Sarah's time at the academy passed without and incident or dramas as she passed all of her courses without any trouble. With the good grades that she received at the academy, Sarah was assured of a quality posting in the fleet.
Star Fleet Career
Starfleet Medical (2377 - 2378)
Sarah graduated from the Medical Academy in 2377 and was promoted to the rank of Lieutenant Junior Grade. Her grades while exceptional put her in the upper midrange of that year's graduating class, which saw her miss out on the more prestigious assignments that were available in the fleet at the time. Sarah's ability and talent didn't go unrecognised though as she was assigned to Starfleet Medical on Earth for her internship. At the time Sarah was disappointed to have missed out on a ship based assignment. She had always dreamed of serving out amongst the stars and had been the main reason behind why she had joined Starfleet in the first place. Despite her initial disappointment Sarah was happy with her assignment as she recognised that it was a rare opportunity to work with and alongside some of the brightest minds in the medical field. It was an opportunity that she intended to grasp hands and she did. After completing her one-year internship Sarah was presented with the opportunity to remain at Starfleet Medical on Earth where she would move into a more senior position with more responsibility. She was tempted to remain on Earth and to build on what she had already started but Sarah's desire and wish to see the ocean of stars led her to seek out a starship based assignment. In 2378 her wishes were fulfilled when she was assigned to the new Sovereign Class starship Pacifica as a Medical Officer.
USS Pacifica NCC-72545 (2378 - Current Assignment)
Sarah remained at Starfleet Medical in a temporary role for a couple of months before finally transferring to her new assignment on the Pacifica while the ship was docked at Deep Space 12. The Pacifica was a new experience for Sarah in every way, having come from the mega-large facilities at Starfleet Medical it took Sarah some time to acclimatise to her new and much smaller working environment on the Pacifica.
and it took her some time to adjust to the various challenges that came with serving on a ship based unit. She struck up an immediate accord
Initial period on the Pacifica as junior doctor - time to adjust to new smaller working environment - affinity to Pacifica CMO.
Upon the completion of her training, Sarah was assigned to the new Sovereign Class USS Pacifica, where she took up a brief internship before being promoted to the rank of Lieutenant Junior Grade. Following her promotion Sarah slotted into her next role as one of the Pacifica's four medical officer's. She served in this position for two and a half years in which time she continued to develop into a dependable and capable officer and doctor. Her excellent work on the Pacifica was rewarded in 2379 when Sarah was offered the position of Assistant Chief Medical Officer on the Pacifica. Sarah happily accepted the offer and immediately moved into her new position on the Pacifica.
Sarah had little trouble adjusting to her position as she relished the additional responsibilities that came with the Assistant Chief position. She is still actively improving her skills and has even taken a active role with instructing the junior members of the Pacifica’s Medical Department, by 2381 she had earned a promotion to the rank of Lieutenant. She is still serving on the Pacifica to this day.
