Brief History

She obtained a medical degree prior to attending Starfleet Academy and served as a medical officer for several years before being assigned for the first time as a chief medical officer. She served in a medical administrative position following her CMO stints and chose to pursue command training in that capacity. She first commanded a starship ten years prior to her service on Starbase 58.


Career Recognition

Zalea is a highly decorated officer, both for her Starfleet service and for her contributions to medicine. She is a leading coauthor on the primary text on Romulan medicine outside the Star Empire, Romulan Anatomy & Pathophysiology.

Facts, Quirks, and the Like

Addresses her colleagues and subordinates, with few exceptions, by their surnames, not by ranks or honorifics.
Has a huge laugh. Can be found easily in a crowded room, as long as there's something amusing.
Off-duty clothing tends to be understated, but greatly enjoys dressing up for special occasions.


Family


Partner Noemi Teyla

Noemi is Zalea's partner. The two met in medical school at the University of Betazed, but weren't able to be align their professional lives until they served as doctors on the Starship Tirgatao in 2373. Noemi resigned from Starfleet at the rank of lieutenant to focus more on medicine rather than her career as an officer, but she has (whenever possible) served as a civilian physician on all of Zalea's ships and bases. Born in 2333 on Betazed.


Daughter Seren Solzano

Zalea and Noemi's elder child. Born to Zalea in 2364. Pursued a commission in Starfleet and, so far, has been able to achieve postings with her mother. Currently serves at the rank of lieutenant JG.


Son San Teyla

Zalea and Noemi's younger child. Born to Noemi in 2366. Actor and artist, occasionally spends time with his family--and lucky they're all in one place, most of the time.


Active Duty History

Zalea has served aboard almost a dozen ships and installations during her time in Starfleet. The Dominion War and the shifting politics in the Alpha and Beta Quadrants, as well as her own steady climb up the ranks, means that her service has been punctuated and interrupted. As a commanding officer, she seeks stability in a way she didn't have as a junior officer.
