All my life has been entwined with music. When I was a six-year-old child, my parents signed me to an elementary art school in Košice. I studied accordion and drums for seven years and electric guitar for four years. During these years of playing musical instruments my relationship with music became very strong.
Later I studied classical guitar performance at Jozef Adamovič Conservatory in Košice for six years, including two-year pedagogy and psychology vocational courses and internship at an art school for children.
After graduating I was teaching children playing guitar and piano at elementary art school in Sečovce for two years. Then I was accepted to musicology programme at Academy of Performing Arts in Bratislava. I studied one semester at Estonian Academy of Music and Theatre in Tallinn. During my last academic year, I was teaching music theory and history group lessons at elementary art school in Bratislava.
When living in Stockholm, I was piano teacher at a culture school and as a freelancer. Now I have a music transcription job for a museum in Tallinn and resuming private teaching.
