I grew up in the Czech Republic, in a village close to the second largest city which gave me the opportunity of living the double life of both the countryside serenity and the metropolitan rush. This duality provided me with a love for the safe and never-changing, and a hunger for the new and uncertain.

In pursuit of self-discovery, at 19, I decided to leave the country to study for my first degree in International Communication and Industrial Design in the Netherlands and subsequently interned at Amsterdam-based media agency Natwerk as a photographer and a social media strategist.

This, however, did not satisfy my rediscovered passion for design and photography, therefore, in the year of graduating with my first degree, I decided to apply for the photography degree at The Royal Academy of Arts in The Hague, where I realized I might not be just a photographer after all.

Throughout the years, I found joy in working with other media such as videos, games, performances, or 3D; the latter two I applied during my second internship with Agnieszka Polska in Berlin. Currently, near the end of my studies, my topics of interest include feminist activism, trauma healing, social media, virtual realities, and the future of beauty.

From a commercial standpoint, I photograph portraits, fashion editorials, and music and fashion events – the most recent clients include My Baby, Paard, Stroom Den Haag, The Municipality of The Hague, and Kunstmuseum Den Haag.
