Family life:
Lwuvele was born to Andrus and Azuma Dedeztre on Betazed. Both Andrus and Azuma were diplomats and were assimilated on by the Borg during a mission in Eta Eridani Sector on stardate 69552.96 (April 3, 2394). After her parents were assimilated Lwuvele was adopted by a close family friend, Jemma Hagen (Betazoid) and her partner Vara Yed (Unjoined Trill). Hagen worked as a astrophysist and Yed is a Medical officer, both are assigned to DS 9. Lwuvele would often spend time on Bajor as she found it a peaceful retreat from the hetect life on the Station.
Academy Career:
Encouraged by her mothers Lwuvele applied to the Academy. She took the exams twice before passing them and was finally accepted. This heralded the start of an average career at the Academy. Lwuvele often spent time alone having never been much good at making friends. her telepathy and empathy was more of a burden to her at the Academy, especially around exam time as she had never quite learned how not to take on the emotions of others that she felt.
Starfleet Career:
Had it not been for the Borg attack on the Alexandra, Lwuvele would have likely continued her average career, stuck at a console, never reaching a higher rank than Lieutenant. Since the attack her passion for leadership has been ignited and she currently pursues all who encroach on the Federation territory in memory of her parents.
