Why did you decide to stay in Serbia?
Even when I left Serbia, fleeing from the country was never a motive. I gained international experience, I had more expectations of myself and I wanted to develop in different directions, but I was always happy to come back home.
What did you want to be when you were little?
During my early school years, I showed an affinity towards sports. I quickly started training athletics, and my lifetime dream was to be the fastest woman in the 400-metre dash. I accomplished this in Serbia and Europe, but my ambition shifted. 😊
Favourite school subject?
I didn’t have a favourite subject, I had favourite professors. My second love is psychology, which I discovered during my studies.
Business role model?
My role model will always be Vera Nikolic. The woman who developed my greatest talent, opened the doors of the world for me and taught me true values. That is the proper attitude towards young people.
