| Your Personal Biography |
Born 1965 in Split, Croatia. After finishing Art High School in Split, studied for some time Technical College. In 1991 graduated at the Academy of Fine Arts in Sarajevo, Bosnia and Herzegovina. At the same time studied philosophy and sociology at the University in Sarajevo.
Went back home after graduation. Lived as an artist, art and design teacher, and Art-and Book-shop owner. Became a mom and than went to NY in January, 2000.
Living as a stay-at-home-mom, I finished a Child Day Care Manager Course and then Early Childhood Education Associate Degree. Moved from New York to New Jersey in 2008 and became a Registered Family Child Care Provider, First Aid and CPR certified. My home is now a State Licensed Family Child Care Home that is also meeting Federal Nutritional Requirements. I'm every day again delighted about the way a child’s mind works and fascinated with a kid’s passion and natural creativity.
