After receiving her Diploma in Classical Ballet and Contemporary Dance teaching in Greece, she continued her studies with a post graduate degree MA Contemporary Dance Teaching in Germany and has collected years of experience in performance and production management in Europe and Cyprus. She has worked with and taken seminars with well-known choreographers and professional dancers such as: a.o.

She motivates her creativity by being curious and practicing art in everyday life.
