A newly posted ensign who finds herself at the Enterprise-D's science station in 2370 when a skeleton crew under Beverly Crusher has to fight a Borg ship.
Ensign Taitt appears in Descent, Part II, which opens the seventh season. With most of the crew searching a planet for Data, Crusher commands the ship with a handful of junior officers. Taitt, who has been aboard only a few weeks, is nervous and is talked down to by the tactical officer.
When the Borg vessel returns, Crusher takes the ship into a star's corona behind the experimental metaphasic shield. Taitt, who studied solar dynamics, suggests using a particle beam to trigger an eruption from the star's surface.
The eruption engulfs and destroys the Borg ship. Crusher gives her full credit. Taitt was played by Alex Datcher.
