History

Personal History Magdalena was born in Guadalajara, Mexico. Her father taught history and anthropology at the Universidad de Mexico. Her mother came from a family of chefs and worked in the family restaurant. It was part Mexican restaurant, part Italian restaurant and part nightclub. As the oldest child, Maggie would come home from school and work in the restaurant. At first she bussed tables and helped clean, later she learned how to cook. It was an easy way for her family to keep an eye on her.

She always thought she would be a cook, like her mother, but fate had other things in store for her. She was always a small child and loved to study, so she was picked on a lot. One day when she was 13 she'd had enough and punched one of the bullies hard enough to knock him out. For several weeks, the other bullies left her alone. So, she began to study martial arts and self-defense in what little free time she had.

Maggie found that she was equally adept at cooking and martial arts, so she began to study various forms. She focused on Tai Chi for its defensive strengths, then studied wrestling because it looked fun.

When she graduated from school, her father insisted she go to the University and study something, even if she went back home and joined the family business. So, to please him, she majored in history and anthropology, focusing on Pre-Columbian Central and South America, medieval Europe and ancient Vulcan. She continued to study Tai Chi and added Kung Fu for variety. She gave up wrestling because it was no longer fun, but took up knife throwing because she was fascinated with how entertainers could do so many things with them. To relax from her studies, she took up painting, a hobby she had enjoyed as a child.

After graduation she went back home and spent a summer working in the restaurant, but found that she was restless and wanted to explore and learn more.

A friend of hers suggested she apply to starfleet as it was the ultimate way to explore and learn about other cultures and their history and cuisines. She was surprised when she was accepted.

She couldn't decide on a career path, so chose science and security because they catered to her two passions. It gave her the choice, if she found one didn't suit her she could always switch to the other.

Many of her classmates thought she was nuts to try and do both. Others said she was too small to ever make it as a security officer. That only made her more determined to prove them wrong. She proved them wrong by graduating with above-average grades in both.
