I'm an entrepreneur, I build communities, and I believe great things are never the work of one person.
My path began with five years living and studying in Shanghai, and today I live that same passion at home in Ljubljana.
I believe in community, because belonging is what gives a city and a place its soul. We're not just looking for four walls or a desk to work at, we're looking for a place where we belong, where we're heard, and where we're surrounded by people who lift us up.

The journey so far
2015–2020
The Shanghai Chapter
Lived and studied in Shanghai for 5 years. Directed the Shanghai Summer School and brought over 300 students from 36 countries to China.
Fun fact · Been studying Mandarin for 10 years now. Sadly, still don't speak it. Vztrajnost šteje!

The Return & Boutique Hospitality
Moved back at the onset of the pandemic and opened a small boutique hostel in Ljubljana — the city's only quiet hostel.
Present
Coworking & Community
Running Pisarna, a coworking space uniting 160 entrepreneurs, startups, and freelancers. We believe that true success isn't measured by your bank balance, but by how many times you get back up and try again. Here, we care about what you build, not what you say. Actions speak louder than words.
China shaped me in its own unique way, it taught me just how vast and diverse the world really is. That's why I'm now planning something new. Guangzhou hosts the largest consumer trade fair in the world, held twice a year. In April 2027, I'm taking a group of 15 ambitious young entrepreneurs on a business and community trip to China, visiting Hong Kong and Guangzhou, and capping off our 10-day journey right back where it all started: Shanghai.
The routeTap a city
For many, Hong Kong means a financial hub and the pulse of Asia. For me, it's the city that shaped me. It's where my parents did business 30 years ago, a city I thought I knew everything about, until I got to know it myself. The first time I landed in Hong Kong, the world became something else.
