She graduated from the University of West Hungary in 2009. Her works are primarily aimed at seeking situations defined by contrast to create tension. The raw materials she uses appear as a clear, constructive form in the integral whole of her objects, with the parts she modifies creating distorted shapes that change the entire character of the objects. She won first place in the Zepter International Design Award in Paris in 2006. She received a certificate of recognition at the 5th International Silicate Art Triennial in 2017 and won the VeszprémFest Award at the Veszprém Spring Art Exhibition in 2019. Her works can be found in several Hungarian and Slovakian public collections.
