Meet the Editor-In-Chief :: Melanie E Magdalena

Melanie E. Magdalena is a person who has distinguished herself by her constant search for truth and information about diverse cultures, through research, all of which have allowed her to discover her true passion and her decision to study archeology.

Today she studies at the University of New Mexico. She has visited archaeological sites as Teotihuacan and Tulum (Mexico); Alta Mira and Empúries (Spain); Altun Ha, Cerros, Lamanai, and La Milpa (Belize); Casa Grande and Montezuma's Castle (Arizona). All this combined has inspired her to be an archaeologist, but her journey has only just begun as founder and Editor-in-Chief of BermudaQuest - where she continues her research, interviews and other articles for you to enjoy.
