| Personal History | Tressa Rikan was born in 2364 on Luna, orbiting Earth and she grew up the only child of her parents, Daniel and Fiona Rikan. She was a happy child but others were not so happy as she watched the events unfold throughout her short life, the Borg attack in the Wolf system was when she was three years old, followed by various other events in rapid succession. This only fueled her interests in medicine along with various other interests. She watched as both of her parents were affected by the Dominion War with two incidents of sabotage on Luna itself, one was in the Copernicus Yards and the other was at the Tranquility Shipyards. She decided she would go into Starfleet as soon as she could. It wasn't until 2382 that she got her wish, she went into the medical programs and did really well. She graduated with honors and was sent to her first assignment, the USS Solace which was an Excelsior class ship newly refitted for the medical role. it was mostly meant to extend the lives of these older ships in the fleet but it met with some successes and some failures. Tressa did well here as she developed some command skills as time went by and she was transferred after being promoted to the USS Redemption, another Excelsior medical variant where she was given the posting of Chief Medical Officer. She served here for the better part of eighteen months before she was asked if she wanted to serve on the USS Tranquility, it would serve as a vital stepping stone on her path to a medical command, she said yes and so off she went to the USS Tranquility. |
