The only real mistake I see is having AtB2 and EPtW2 instead of AtB1 and EPtW3.
You should be capable of getting more than 40k with that, if you're not running with some DPS monsters.
There is probably some level of piloting holding you back.
How are your controls set up? Ages ago when I took offensive abilities off my spacebar to use them more appropriately, my average DPS went up by around 30% with no other changes.
Then there's the piloting aspect - knowing where to go, and being able to get there in time.
Are you getting to the right places at the right times?

You might also consider pulling a few skill points from the Tac lt. Commander Accuracy and Defense skills and add them to the Lt. Level Projectile Wrapons skill instead, and maybe drop the FAW2 skill to add a Torp Spread 2 and swap the Torp Spread 1 for Kemocite 1 or FAW1 if you really want a FAW option (FAW is probably the worst firing mode for DPS these days and you don't seem to have traits that need it). The Disco torp hits pretty hard so showing it some love should help. You might also take a look at the Fleet Colony deflector for extra crit and maybe the elite fleet plasma warp cores that have the weapon cost reduction stat if you are burning down your weapons power levels fast in combat (easy to do with a 5/3 weapons layout and a Beam Overload build).
I'd also maybe consider piloting here. You have pretty elite gear here, and other than being a bit heavy on survivability stats I'd think you should be able to get parses higher than 40k as-is.

Your build is based on beam arrays and omnis, which is the most forgiving for a novice pilot, but also has the lowest dps potential unfortunately. I would suggest trying to practice by concentrating on getting the dark matter torp firing regularly, as it has the smallest arc of your present weapons and will be more challenging. Other than that, it mostly is a matter of maybe dumping some of your survivability skills and traits for more dps oriented options. Most of the uber-dps builds are glass cannons meant to down opponents quickly before they can retaliate, but keeping your glass cannon from shattering can help you up your piloting too after practice.

Running A2B and Photonic Officer at the same time is pointless.
Replace Auxiliary to Battery II with Emergency Power to Weapons III and replace Emergency Power to Weapons III with Auxiliary to Battery I
Replace Aceton Beam I with Reverse Shield Polarity II
Replace Subspace Vortex I with Polarize Hull I
Replace Photonic Officer I with Hazard Emitters II
Replace Non-Baryonic Matter Deflector Mk XV [HullCap]x2 [ShCap] [ShdHeal] [ShCap/ShdHeal] with [Elite Fleet Intervention Protomatter Deflector Array Mk XV [ColCrit] [EPS] [HullCap] [Sh/HullCap] [ShCap]]
Replace one Epic Console - Tactical - Vulnerability Locator Mk XV [+Pha] with [Console - Tactical - Lorca's Custom Fire Controls Mk XV]
Also with you ship having regular beams in the front to so for the back but keep the Trilithium one and go broadside.
Very important replace Beam Fire at Will II with Attack Pattern Beta I you need a debuff.

Glass cannon:
Noun Glass cannon (plural glass cannons) (role-playing games, board games, video games) A character or unit with strong offensive power but weak defensive capabilities.
That's what I have (for the most part). You have to have a quick and maneuverable ship, and be fast on the keys. Oh, and it helps to have actual cannons.

So the next important steps:
For your Beam Overload you want to get the tow following Starship Traits, Superweapon Ingenuity (it allows your Beam Overload to be active for 15 Seconds vs the 10 it normaly has so it is up all the time) and second one is Preferential Targeting Trait giving you a nice Damage Boost.
Space Reputation Traits to use:
Precision
Advanced Targeting Systems
Controlled Countermeasures only if you run A2B and you have the Cold Hearted Trait
Magnified Firepower
