My Story

Initially I started working in IT as a way to support myself while studying at The National Academy of Theatre and Film Arts in Sofia, where I was pursuing a path toward becoming a film director. Over time, however, I developed a genuine interest in the IT field and decided to continue growing in this direction. In many
ways, the two fields are quite similar – both require creativity and constantly finding new ways to solve problems.

Three years ago, I joined Pontica, where I’ve had the opportunity to build my skills and gain valuable experience. Outside of work, I stay connected to my creative roots I direct advertisements and music videos in my free time, combining my technical background with my passion for visual storytelling.
