Biography

Ibolya has been interested in history and archaeology since childhood. Despite her interest, she was discouraged from pursuing a career in the field and went on to study communication and media management instead. She studied in the Netherlands as an exchange student and graduated with distinction.

She worked in various editorial roles, publishing both fiction and non-fiction, and spent a few years working as a freelance translator before going back to university for another degree, this time in archaeology. Ibolya has been an editor at WHE since 2015.
