My name is Marlon Magdalena, aka Ælu'æki or aluaki (translates to "Young Elk", It is my Jemez name). I am a Native American flute player and flute maker. I am a tribal member of Jemez Pueblo, a federally-recognized tribe in New Mexico. I come from the Magdalena and the Sando Family, as well as the Panana's and the Vigil's/Mora's. My life is centered around my family and community of Jemez,where I have lived most of my life. I proudly participate in all aspects of Jemez Life; for instance, I speak the Jemez Language, I plant Jemez corn, sing Jemez songs, and dance Jemez Dances. I am proud that I am from a place that still continues our ancient ways of life. Read full bio
