This year, I celebrate an incredible 18-year journey in science communication—from my first Science Festival appearance in Belgrade in 2007 to building a knowledge island in Sweden that inspires families, educators, and young scientists.

My path began with a simple but powerful instinct: to listen.
I listened to children’s questions, parents’ concerns, and the curiosity of the general public. I translated complex scientific concepts into everyday language, making science not just understandable—but relatable.

As my journey evolved, so did my methods. I moved from lectures to hands-on science, using affordable, edible materials to explore biology, chemistry, and environmental science. My work bridges natural and social sciences, touching on sustainability, recycling, and circular economy—especially meaningful once I became a mother herself.

My kitchen became a lab. My home, a classroom.
And my vision? That every home can be a small island of knowledge.

My mission is deeply rooted in equality and inclusion. I advocate for opportunities for minority and underrepresented groups, believing that science should be accessible to all. My work aim to empower young people to pursue scientific careers and see knowledge as a tool for building a better society.

Through festivals, lectures, workshops, school programs, and family events, collaborations and partnerships I have met over 500,000 children and counting. Kids are my greatest teachers—each question a spark, each interaction a step forward.

My Serbian roots and education and Swedish continued education and experiences blend into a unique approach that celebrates emotional intelligence, active listening, and informal education at home.
