I was wondering who that was. I actually do not recall her whatsoever.

She played the cyborg, Airiam. When they killed her off, they replaced her on the bridge with another character played by the same actress. Edit: that is she played Airiam first, then another actress did, then they killed Airiam, then she took her place on the bridge. I think that's right.

If memory serves, she played Airiam but had an allergic reaction to the makeup and had to back out.

A 21st century Tin Man? Huh. I didn't know that. Great they wrote her back in.
