About me
View profile
After a versatile acting career in the Balkans, including work with the Croatian National Theatre, I moved to London to study producing. Following valuable experiences in general management in the West End, I’m shifting back to acting full-time. 
I have a passion for traveling the roads less taken.
Currently writing and developing my first short film. 
EU Passport.
