I have also worked in the creative industries both in the UK and Hungary for several years. My focus has been on helping talented artists sell their work online as an artist manager, promoter, and creative entrepreneur. Some highlights:

My team collaborated with over 150 international partners and utilized AI to enhance marketplace performance after securing early-stage and later seed funding from 2016 to 2020. I was featured in several top lists as a female founder and CEO, including Guild's '10 Hungarian Startups with Female Founders to Watch in 2020' and Vestbee's 'Top 25 Women From VC and Startup Ecosystem In Hungary'.

→ Established AS Contemporary, an online gallery for UK-based artists. It had a charity donation feature, and The Resident London magazine praised the gallery for its potential to revolutionise the UK art market. (2014-2016)
