She appeared on Star Trek: The Next Generation as Dr. Leah Brahms and Star Trek: Deep Space Nine as Erika Benteen. She was strongly considered for the role of Captain Kathryn Janeway on Star Trek: Voyager, but the studio rejected her as being too young. She was later considered for the role of Seven of Nine and tested twice, but it is said that producer Rick Berman ended up choosing Jeri Ryan for this role at least in part because of her voluptuous figure.
