Bio

25 years in financial sector made me a passionate educator in the field, especially among younger generation. Accompanied with my Life Coaching skills I am taking my experience and sharing it with people who would love to bring their financial literacy to a higher level. I feel strongly about equality among all people and love taking part in activism for that cause. As a passionate researcher of various topics I am very fond of new technologies and development. Therefore I am happy to live in this day and age. I love sharing that happiness and positivity with others. My curiosity is what drives me to explore and look for new adventures. Since an early age I loved watching movies, so by today I am a certified cinephile :) Another passion of mine is the beauty of nature and the world around us. This is how I developed my love for photography. Tai Chi and meditation is how I find my inner peace and refocus myself when the rapid lifestyle of today takes its toll on my mind and body. My hobbies include drawing, cooking and reading among other things.

I'm passionate about

financial literacy teaching, young people, life coaching, advising people,...

Areas of expertise

The TED story

I first heard about TED 15 years ago after my friend showed me an inspiring speech about the power of an individual in a big community. Thought the years, I continued to listen and share interesting, inspiring, funny and educational speeches with my friends and family. During a series of life changes I found myself living in a new city and in search of a new community. While browsing my favorite page to unwind, I saw a post about TEDxZagreb looking for a new team members. I thought it is a great opportunity to meet inspiring, open-minded people, and a place where I can share my ideas worth spreading. Today, my role is communicating with sponsors and partners while incorporating them into our vision and making sure TEDxZagreb events run smoothly :)
