PERSONAL INFORMATION
- Personality: Friendly, personable, good sense of humor, emotional to some extent, and has excellent communication skills. She is not afraid of taking on anything new as long as it holds her interest. Anything that does not present a good challenge is deemed boring. She is competitive by nature.
- Personal Assessment: "I am a "loner" - unconventional by most standards. I enjoy solitude, but know that is not always possible." In spite of it, her Southern hospitality comes natural and is evident in the way she accepts new people.
- Personal Beliefs: "I believe that people are like fledgling birds. Some stand around flapping their wings, reluctant to leave the nest. Some take off running and fall to the ground. And some go to the edge of the nest, flap their wings and take flight, catching the first breeze and begin to soar. And oh, how I love the solitude of soaring."

PROFESSIONAL INFORMATION
After graduation, Toni was assigned to her first post as a counselor at the Embassy on Duronis II. It wasn't long before the CMO noticed that she had an aptitude for a career as a Medical Officer and began training her to take over his job when he retired. The more she learned the more she wanted to learn, so she enrolled into a correspondence course studying for her degree and interning under the CMO's direction. Most things she learned from watching him, and when he retired, she stepped into the role of CMO, but kept up her studies until she had enough credits to become a full fledged Doctor of Medicine.
LtCmdr Turner
In 2388, immediately after the Destruction of Romulus and Remus, rioting broke out as anti-Romulan protesters took to the streets in an attempt to drive Romulan forces from the planet. The Romulan Ambassador was recalled to help with more pressing diplomatic issues elsewhere, but a number of Romulan operatives remained in control of government ministries. The Laudeans, having watched their culture deteriorate during their alliance with the Romulans, took the opportunity to contact the Federation, inviting them back to Duronis II for protection from renegade Romulans, the fragmented Tal Shiar, or any other opportunistic species that could endanger their culture. The Federation agreed, and sent the crew of USS Thunder, captained by Toni Turner, to reopen the Embassy, and serve as its staff.
By the time the USS Thunder arrived, the Laudeans had ousted the remaining Romulans, and had taken over the Federation Embassy for their own office use. Prime Minister Ahishma Chandra, now back in office, gave the Federation representatives, the newly renovated Romulan Embassy instead as insurance that the Romulans would not try to reoccupy it.
