12 of my artworks participated in an exhibition called ”Canvas Blast”, in Goblin club, in Constanta. The project is meant to be a platform to expose young artists, to make them visible and to encourage art as an activity among teenagers and young adults.
Freelance Translator 2015 – I translated the subtitles for a short film.

Education
Ovidius University Psychology, 2009 – 2017 (finished all 3 years, passed all my exams with respectable marks which reflect my current knowledge in the subjects I studied, great interest and respect for what I’m studying aka The Human Nature, but did not get my Bachelor degree yet, because I keep working at it to make it better. My Bachelor degree focuses on the connection between reading literature – and its relation with empathy, emotional intelligence, and other personality factors. The more I learn and read, the more I realize of how little I actually know. However, I planned to finish it next year.)
Ovidius Highschool 2004 – 2008 (studied Natural Sciences – intensive English, and wrote my English certificate on the subject of David Lynch, my favourite director at the time – now it’s hard to pick between him and Gaspar Noé)

Honors and Awards
Winner of the literary competition ”Zestrea de cititor”
Winner of the Hyperliteratura’s literary contest ”Poveşti din gară ”

….and finally, a little sample I gathered from my prose:

I also have a lot of notebooks in which I write fiction literature, prose, but it is written by hand, on paper, so if you do want to see it, I would be more than enchanted to share as many samples as you wish from it at the interview!
