Airseé Lily Ventu obtained advanced degrees in psychiatry and xenopsychology before applying to the Federation Starfleet for officer training. As an officer, she spent a large part of her career (up through the rank of lieutenant commander) as a counselor aboard the exploratory vessel {{USS|Victory}}. After a brief stint as a temporary command officer aboard the escort {{USS|Triumphant}}, Lily accepted a posting as a diplomatic officer aboard [[Starbase 118]], eventually attaining the rank of commander and brief overall command of the starbase's Starfleet operations. However, during a difficult situation on the colony world Beta Pictoris IV, Lily chose to resign her commission and negotiate the situation as a noncommissioned diplomat; and though Starfleet offered to reverse her resignation in the years that followed, she declined after she received an offer from the Federation Diplomatic Corps to serve as an official ambassador. She was later confirmed by the Office of the President as an ambassador and, three years later, as an ambassador-at-large serving Starbase 118 and its surrounding sectors, [[Trinity Sector|Trinity]], [[Serellan Sector|Serellan]], and [[Jenatris Cloud Sector|Jenatris Cloud]]. | |||
In 2389, Ambassador Ventu left her posting to campaign full time to be Earth's representative on the Federation Council.

Ambassador Ventu ran for the office of Federation President in 2392. Her campaign was based upon peaceful negotiations with the Federation's neighbors and an increased focus on diplomacy and exploration for the Starfleet. She ended in the middle of the road for the popular vote, but following the election of [[Narala]] to the presidency, the new president appointed Ventu to her Cabinet as Secretary of the Exterior. | |||
