Ballerina turned motion designer hailing from California, here to solve problems and make companies grow! I was born in the Silicon Valley and received my B.F.A. in Dance Performance from the University of California, Irvine. As a first generation Croatian-American, I always had the great desire to live in Croatia and I finally found the courage to move across the world to Zagreb, Croatia in 2018 to reconnect with my heritage. Discovering a new life and creating a career in Croatian Tech has been an incredible honor. Currently, I am the Director of Operations at Omnisearch AI, where I lead our design, marketing, and PR team to revolutionize search. Check out our implementations in Ed-tech app Thinkific and Underline Science, or learn more on www.omnisearch.ai My job is to challenge and progress our team on a daily basis, helping us grow together and achieve a 1M$ yearly revenue. It's powerful to connect with people over the things that make us human. As a leader, I constantly strive to improve my knowledge of human psychology to help me empathize and motivate my kick-ass team! Through my podcast, AI Searched, I reach out to professionals from different industries to learn about the developments of machine learning and artificial intelligence in their work and life. https://www.youtube.com/@AISearchedI also take part in a huge passion project, Playbox Production's Playbox Shorts Film Festival as an advisor and PR director. In 2023, our festival sold out in 3 days, saw over 400 guests on our grand opening with a red carpet, live concert, and after party, and we hit our fundraising goal with 23 sponsors from Croatia and beyond. In 2024, we are looking forward to a 3 day festival, collaborating with the University of Utah, Dance Camera West, Academy of Arts in Zagreb and Sarajevo for our youth jury, and taking student submissions from around the world.But sometimes work isn't always enough... I spent my entire childhood intensively training in classical ballet and I am so lucky to have an employer that allows me to make time for my second career in Musical Theatre in Zagreb! Catch me dancing in Jesus Christ Super Star Rock Opera, Beauty and the Beast, and Grofica Marica at Zagreb City Theatre Komedija. Please feel free to contact me via LinkedIn. I'm always looking forward to an insightful conversation about Motion Design, Machine Learning, and Arts & Culture!
