Personal mottos:
Free is only that person who doesn't need to hide anything - front of no one.
Who don´t know where is the port - for these persons no wind is favourable.
No one situation is so bad, that it can not be worse - personal experience.
 
What does she think about the design? Graphic design isn't only colours or shape.Is a culture, art of communication.We need to understand all the elements constituting the content. The design is already in itself a tool for creating, opinions and commentary at the same time. It is also a kind of social denunciation. Creating design is more than just compile - format and presentation - delivered it’s work a certain value and importance through it- explain, simplify, clarify, persuade, and perhaps also conversation. The designer is a mediator, someone who receives thoughts and ideas and gives them back in a visible form. Uses imagination, colour, symbols, letters, materials- inserted into them a certain mood, rhythm maybe even the soul of language. Creative designer and typographer must communicate with letters - type, shape, find best this essence … Creating a graphic design concept with an accent of contrast, repetition, proximity, alignment or positive and negative space. Because communication is one of the forms of art. But not every person can be an artist. And success in this industry meaning to be not only a great communicator or artist but especially be a person what have the sensibility to understand real problems of people and help to find a good strategy for. And this it's the natural reason, why find the motivation doing the best!
But a good quote is like a raisin in the cake, however, you can’t make a cake only with just raisins.

“ Without wonder and insight, acting is just a business. With it, it becomes creation.”

Bette Davis


1994 I finished my studies at the Academy of Performing Arts University in Bratislava, Slovakia,

achieving a BSc Degree at Acting and Film Making.

While in University I played small parts in students films. There and then I found my passion for

acting.

After University I carried on acting for six years in theatres as a stage and puppet actress, building

and performing different characters:

• A feeling of hopelessness over the strong but unstable love which more complicated due to

others' intrigues (Kubo).

• Carefree life with Mother Holle. All changes thanks to love for earthly mortal beautiful girl.

(Perimbaba).

• Double personality - good and evil - An intimate horrible fight with herself - Schizophrenia? Two minds in one calf? All because of drugs (Dr. Jekyll and Mr. Hyde).

• Heavy - horrible feeling of losing everything - conflict between desire to forget and desire to remember – gloominess - questions without answer - tracing the man's slow fall into madness (The Raven).

• Bad but crafty clever wolf - played as an actor & puppet as well (Little Red Riding Hood).


After twenty years my acting career continues in England. 2016 adds an extraordinary project - Hello Au Revoir movie - director Jason Croot and my first credit in IMDb. That year I had the option to attend an acting workshop with Pamela Taylor (Liverpool) and Lee Mountjoy (Manchester).

Performance /stage

2017

I was performing and building characters for playwriting Frozen - Nancy who losing a young girl; the murdered girl's mother and The Events playing Claire, a choir-leading vicar who survived the killing spree by hiding in a music room, only to see one of her students shot at point-blank range; and the perpetrator, identified as "The Boy. The latter performer also plays all the other characters in the piece, ranging from Claire's female lover to a psychiatrist to a right-wing politician. 

At the end of years, I had an opportunity to play as a supporting actress in the show The Beauty and The Beast, creating a character of crazy - very active but funny lady from the village.


2018

This year I attended at Liverpool Fridge 24 hour Play Festival, where, in one group was a writer, director, 3 actors I performing lady who had a conflict with another passenger, because I am not English citizen. Also, I was performing very fresh characters from Monkey Barns - made a theatre piece in which the words of adults were spoken by a cast of children. And I don't want to forget the first Improv showcase, in assistance with extraordinary Emma Bird.

My personal motto is "Stay busy, with or without a project, it doesn't matter, just keep yourself a busy actor – always. That's the only way you will be a good actor”
