I am a fashion enthusiast with good leadership abilities, striving for new creative challenges. I like a dynamic work atmosphere with good team 'spirit', which supports one's ability to bring new ideas! My pro's are that I am very dedicated, focused, passionate and enthusiastic, and my con's are that I don't work well under pressure, I'm quite sensitive when it comes to human relations and schedule limits tend to block my creativity.
I always strive fore more, as I get bored very quickly and I can not handle monotony over a long period of time!
I was born in 1983, in Novi Sad, Serbia, but I have been living in Zagreb, Croatia since 1991. Between 2000. and 2001. I attended Culver Military Academy in Culver, Indiana, as I won a scholarship awarded to me by Open Society Croatia. In 2002. I graduated from high school and started my education at the University of Zagreb, School of Medicine, and graduated in 2008. as the Bachelor of Medicine. From 2012.-to 2015. I specialized Family Medicine and became a Family Medicine Specialist.
Since my true passion lays in fashion, I decided to dedicate myself toward starting my future career within the fashion world and discovering new challenges. I founded my own company (Mardi Graff d.o.o) and started my own ready-to-wear brand and my fashion and lifestyle blog (Fashionably Late) a year ago, and by now I have 3 capsule collections and am very satisfied with new collaborations on my blog and vlog. However, my goals do note end here, since I strive to leave Croatia and continue my career within the fashion industry in London, Berlin, Milan or Paris.
