Born in Krakow, Poland, in 1983, she maintains a diverse academic background that bridges technical design and theoretical research. She began her education at the Academy of Fine Arts in Krakow, where she earned a Bachelor’s degree in Industrial Design in 2005. Shifting toward interdisciplinary studies, she completed a Master’s degree in Comparative Civilization Studies at Jagiellonian University in 2012, concurrently finishing postgraduate work in Socio-Cultural Gender Identity. To further refine her craft, she completed additional postgraduate studies in Jewelry, Ceramics, and Precious Metal Processing at the Pedagogical University of Krakow in 2015.
As a scholar, she has focused on the intersection of fashion and social practice. Her published work includes Second-hand clothes in theory and social practice (2011) and Fashion blogs as a form of contemporary art (2012), both released through Jagiellonian University. Her research also extends into international pedagogical contexts, notably with the 2014 publication Arts Education in the Middle East. This unique combination of hands-on design expertise and sociocultural analysis defines her professional trajectory.
