Starfleet Career
Fresh out of the academy Matthew was assigned to the USS Trenchard as a junior engineer where he served for a year under the captaincy of Captain Amos Trask. Before being named as the Assistant Chief Engineer on the USS Raptor. Where he served until he was offered the position of Chief Engineer on the USS Iowa under the command of Captain Launceston, he served on the Iowa for a year and earned a promotion to the rank of Lieutenant Junior Grade. Before transferring to the Beta Antilles Shipyard gaining a promotion to the rank of full Lieutenant as he spent two months working with Starfleet's design team, before accepting the position of Chief Engineer on the USS Pacifica with a promotion to the rank of Lieutenant Commander. He served on the Pacifica for 6 months before being accepted into the Vulcan Science Academy for a 6 month course.
It was during his time at the academy he met up with a fellow officer by the name of Jezreel Kays, where they quickly became "close" friends. After his six month course at the academy he put in for a transfer back to the USS Pacifica this time wishing to serve as the Chief Science Officer as it has became "one" of his new loves. Horne served well during his time on the Pacifica but left the ship again when he got the opportunity to work with the Star Fleet R&D team for a year. Upon the completion of his term with R&D Horne once again transferred back to the Pacifica because he missed the exciting lifestyle that came with being on the Pacifica.
