False! She went on to command her own Obena class starship, the USS Archimedes.
(She did also appear in 1 other TNG episode after this, Samaritan Snare.)

Suspicion confirmed, thanks!
The following year she was exiled to Mars, where she grew an extra boob
Ah, the same Mars where they did the first prototyping for the Doctor’s matrix.
At least she avoided the typical end of most side characters who got a name and speaking role for ~1 episode: dieing as a casualty between some special effects.
I don’t care how inaccurate it is, I laughed
Yeah, not shared for any accuracy by far! I watch both these channels and Fact or Fiction, or rather rotate play for my pets to watch and sometimes join on Pluto all the time, so it made me laugh.
I thought she had her own command now?
She does indeed. Captain Gomez of the USS Archimedes.
Or so we’re led to believe … after a long absence, the Gomez that reappeared many years later was known to be quite two dimensional.
I was shipping her hard with Geordie, then she vanished forever! :(
IIRC that was the intent for her role, a quirky engineer as a love interest for geordi. But apparently their dynamics didn’t work out and she got dropped
There’s also an ethical issue, dating someone directly under you in the chain of command.
