Sonya Gomez

Ensign Sonya Gomez (2365)

Sonya Gomez was a Human engineering officer in Starfleet during the late 24th century.

Early life

She is the youngest of two daughters of José Estaban and Guadalupe Gomez. Her sister, Belinda Gomez, has always had a more relaxed look on life - leading to their mothers often use of the phrase "Why can't you be more like Sonya?"

When she was about 10, she said that she was going to help her mother build a sculpting studio in the attic of their Vieques, Puerto Rico home - and every day after school she would go straight to it. Her sister would later comment on her fast, and good decision making: and how she'd stick to what she decided on.

Starfleet

As an early teenager, she said "I'm going to join Starfleet!" and once she made up her mind she signed up and studied for every placement exam until she was in. In her third year, her 4th year friend Lian T'su was approved and sent to the USS Enterprise-D. Sonya immediately announced to everyone that she would make the posting to the Enterprise! (SCE eBook: Breakdowns)

She graduated Starfleet Academy in 2365, and her first assignment was indeed aboard the Enterprise. Within her first couple of days aboard the Enterprise, she made a horrifying accident, when she spilled hot chocolate all over Captain Picard. (TNG episode: "Q Who?")

While on the Enterprise, Gomez invited fellow officer Kieran Duffy on a date to the ship's arboretum. (SCE eBook: Wildfire) The two continued a romantic relationship for about one year. In 2368, Gomez was promoted to full lieutenant and assigned to the USS Oberth. At that time, she broke off the relationship. (SCE eBook: Invincible)

By 2375, Lieutenant Commander Gomez was chief engineer of the USS Sentinel. Hers was the only ship to survive a mission to sabotage a Dominion outpost during the Dominion War, and she saved her crew by altering the warp fields to appear as a Cardassian freighter.

USS da Vinci

In 2376, Gomez, now a Commander, was assigned to lead the Starfleet Corps of Engineers team aboard the USS da Vinci, where she was reunited with Kieran Duffy. (SCE eBook: Belly of the Beast) They renewed their romantic relationship, and Duffy shortly after proposed marriage. Gomez hesitated in giving her answer, and before she could, Duffy was killed while trying to rescue the ship from the atmosphere of a gas giant. (SCE eBooks: Invincible, Wildfire)

Duffy's death was devastating for Gomez, and she suffered several months of emotional turmoil. In December of 2376, she apparently went insane and took over Rec Station Hildago. In reality, she was held captive there while a complex artificial intelligence program stole her identity. (SCE eBook: Identity Crisis)
