After his time in prison, Pierce decided that he would join Starfleet in order to gain some direction in his life. Once he decided this, he moved to Earth and lived in a rather quiet area in southern England. He spent an entire year preparing physically by learning different martial arts and by studying numerous subjects.

Pierce is a fiercely principled man. He has even gone so far as to compose a set of rules for personal conduct which he dubs "Pierce's Rules of Life". The rules are not finite, as more are continually added to the list but Pierce makes it a habit to never break his rules. In his own words, "Much like the Laws of science cannot be broken in nature, I cannot break the rules which govern my being." While he is a very principled individual, he is also a man of contradictions. Pierce is governed by a distinct sense of personal honour and integrity which is something that often clashes with his job as an Intelligence Officer. His job often takes him in unknown terrain, and requires him to use dishonourable means to achieve his goals.

Most officers, especially in the Security and Intelligence field, spend a lot of time on the holodeck and in the gym. Pierce, while he does enough to stay in shape, is usually busier with other things.

Pierce moved to Earth in late 2385 where he prepared for his entrance exam into Starfleet Academy. He failed in his first two attempts to gain entrance to the Academy and almost gave up when finally, after his third try, he was successfully admitted. Pierce was an average student at the Academy, he excelled in history, did well in military tactics and received good grades in piloting. The sciences, while he found them fascinating, were almost beyond his comprehension. He only barely passed the chemistry finals, with his Academy friend Lon Tunor, a Betazoid. Vincent wasn't an especially athletic person, however he excelled at martial arts. Winning two championships in his years at the Academy, accomplishments he is very proud of.

Vincent Pierce's first and current assignment is on board the USS Apollo as an intelligence officer. He joined the ship while they were in the middle of a very important mission and was at overwhelmed and unsure what to do. With the help of some of the junior officers, he was able to get his footing and remains a valuable member of the Apollo's crew.
