Interview
Who are YOU?
I am a hopeless optimist, who in spite of
everything wants to bring beautiful things
into the life of other people, if not to make
the world a better place. I am a dreamer who
finds ways to make her dreams a reality. I am a
woman who expresses a total confidence and
is not afraid to show her doubts and fears at
the same time. I am an artist and a business
woman who wears these two very different
hats in life.
What was your motivation to
achieve what you have?
Since my childhood I was driven to be the best
in whatever I did. I could not be otherwise. I am
sure it was a great influence of my mother to
start with and then later in life I simply carried
on wishing to be successful and not to fail, to
be recognised as someone who is capable of
producing good results for yourself and for the
others. I think there are people in the world
who care and who do not care about their
mission in the world. I kind of knew that I was
born with a mission to achieve and this strong
feeling was in me all the time.

Combining Creative Skills With
Her Business Environment
Does “Balance” in life exist for
you? If so how do you achieve
it?
Absolutely. It started when I was young with
my hard musical training which at times was
very exhausting. Even during the performance
of a difficult musical piece, you need to find
moments of relaxation without stopping.
I think that this technic taught me how to
balance things in life. The same applies to
balancing your work and caring for the family
and your child, this is what many of today’s busy
business ladies have to do and are doing very
successfully. You have to be super organised
in your mind first of all and understand the
necessity of this balance and then it is a matter
of a careful implementation of your plans.
What is your favourite quote?
I am a dreamer and a philosopher at the same
time and always thinking about the meaning
