Bio
I was born in Zagreb, Croatia on January 28th 1973. Got my college BBA degree in business management from Chaminade University of Honolulu, Hawaii, USA in 1995.
My love and fascination for reptiles especially snakes started at early age. I had my first snake when I was 7 years old and obsession with these mythical and misunderstood creatures still lasts to this very day.
My first exhibition took place in Zagreb in Green Gold centaur in 2013. and all Croatian media follow that story. Specail guest on the exhibition was Mr. Mark O’Shea, world knows expert and TV presenter on Animal Planet and Discovery Channel.
In 2007. as a outside consultant along with Dr. Rainer Fesser and Dr. Maja Lang-Balija I receive annual award for exceptional contribution in animal protection from Austrian Animal protection sociality Tierhilfswerk. We did a special project for keeping and breeding Nose Viper (Vipera ammonites) in captivity in Immunology Institute of Zagreb, where whey use these animals for production of antivenin.
I also participate as outside consultant for the Ministry of Protection of Nature on a project called NIP – I was a lecturer and held workshops on handling dangerous animals for Custom officers, Inspetors of Ministry of protection of nature and border Veterinary inspectors.
