She graduated with a degree in economics, and although she is professionally engaged in accounting, she has always been interested in art and honed her craft through numerous courses.

In her work, she uses saturated, energetic colors to convey intense emotions and feelings and penetrate the viewer, evoking positive experiences. Her paintings act as a kind of "window" to a world full of color and emotion, which takes us away from everyday worries and puts us in a state of euphoria or peace.

In addition, the artist is fascinated by solids, geometric shapes and figures, from which she can organize space and make it more harmonious. She creates surreal images of animals, represented by spatial figures, which are reflected in her perception of ordered reality.
Her paintings reflect deep emotions and often deal with subjects close to the heart, making them not only visually appealing, but also inspiring on many levels.
