I'm a filmmaker and writer with experience in production, editing, and online content. For the past two years, I’ve worked at Kriptomat, a European crypto platform, where I produce videos, manage social media, and coordinate a team that runs 11 YouTube channels across Eastern Europe, reaching over 40,000 subscribers. I’m involved in every step, from planning ideas to uploading the final cut. Previously, I founded Ljoljo Media, working on short films, photo shoots, and videos for clients in real estate, events, and advertising; some short films have won awards at Slovenian festivals. I’m fluent in Slovenian and English and learning Spanish. I studied acting at the Institute of the Arts Barcelona, which shapes how I approach dialogue, pacing, and performance. I care about telling stories that feel honest—whether through film, a photo, or a YouTube video. I’m always exploring new ways to tell visual stories and help brands connect with audiences through authentic content and thoughtful storytelling.
