Born in Sofia,
based in Berlin.

Project management is where my passion, precision, and a touch of creative madness come together, because let’s be honest, that’s exactly what it takes in the event industry!

Outside of work, I’m a multitasking mom to three remarkable sons, an aspiring drummer and an occasional model and performer.
