SPARTAN-G059 enlisted with the [[United Nations Space Command]]'s [[SPARTAN-III program]] at a young age, along with other orphans, having been given an opportunity to avenge the family that was lost during the [[Covenant]]'s [[Human-Covenant War|war]] against [[human]]ity. Trained by [[Lieutenant Commander]] [[Kurt Ambrose]] and [[Senior Chief Petty Officer]] [[Franklin Mendez]] at [[Camp Currahee]] on the planet [[Onyx]], she was assigned to [[SPARTAN-III Gamma Company|Gamma Company]].<ref name="goo98">'''Halo: Ghosts of Onyx''', ''pages 98-100''</ref> Following his [[Project CHRYSANTHEMUM|augmentations]] in [[2551|February 2551]], SPARTAN-G059 and the rest of Gamma Company remained in training for over a year. The majority of the company received deployment orders away from Onyx several weeks after the [[Fall of Reach]] in [[2552|August 2552]], with only the three highest-ranked teams remaining on Onyx.<ref>'''Halo: Ghosts of Onyx''', ''page 139''</ref>

Following the end of the Covenant War, SPARTAN-G059 served the [[Office of Naval Intelligence]], embarking on covert high-profile [[operation]]s. On [[2558#January|January 21, 2558]], ONI [[Section Three]] deployed the Spartan aboard the {{Class|Winter|prowler}} {{UNSCShip|From the Ashes}} on an operation to [[New Llanelli]] in the [[Brunel system]] to [[Assassination of Avu Med 'Telcam|assassinate]] [[Avu Med 'Telcam]], leader of the [[Servants of the Abiding Truth]]. SPARTAN-G059 disembarked in the remains of a city on the planet, whereupon he snuck past [[Unggoy]] guards and eliminated two [[Kig-Yar]] scouts. Jumping onto a [[Type-52 Phantom|Phantom dropship]] as an impromptu means of transportation, the Spartan destroyed a [[Type-26 Shade]] and broke through a window leading to 'Telcam's position, where the [[Sangheili]] was conversing with two subordinates. After quickly eliminating the Sangheili guards, SPARTAN-G059 engaged 'Telcam himself, narrowly avoiding his [[Type-51 carbine|carbine]] fire. The Spartan forced the Sangheili to take cover within a [[Z-4190 bubble shield|bubble shield]] with a [[M9 fragmentation grenade|fragmentation grenade]], allowing him to rush 'Telcam and knock the rifle from his hands. 'Telcam slammed the Spartan into a wall, cracking her helmet, though he recovered and maneuvered around 'Telcam, eventually knocking the Sangheili to the ground. As 'Telcam picked himself up, SPARTAN-G059 finally executed the Sangheili with a single [[M6 series|pistol]] shot to the head. The Spartan was quickly extracted by ''From the Ashes'', which entered [[slipspace]] upon leaving the planet. he was then assigned a new operation.<ref name="tfs"/>
