She graduated from the Moholy-Nagy University of Art and Design in 2011. She was greatly influenced by the video games of the 70s and 80s, along with the image flaws of early monitors, and this pixel world is also reflected in her works. Her unique technique is based on the use of flat glass strips to build playful glass constructions. In 2013, she received a Lajos Kozma Scholarship, in 2016 a creative grant by the National Cultural Fund. Since 2013 she has been a board member of the Studio of Young Designers Association, since 2017 she has been a teacher at the Álmos Jaschik Art School, and between 2018 and 2021 she was a board member of the Hungarian Glass Art Society.
