I discovered the magic of sound as a medium for capturing reality in 2019, when, as an intern at the European Parliament, I had the opportunity to record podcasts. I was very fortunate to later find a job as a journalist for Radio Slovakia International, where I was able to combine my enthusiasm for languages with my curiosity about listening to inspiring stories and capturing them through a microphone.
My passion for radio and my desire to work across diverse genres also led me to Slovak Radio Junior, where I learned how to create content for children, and to Rádio_FM, where I produced music series exploring the intersections between music, art, and literature.
Working for Radio Prague International is another step in my career that once again allows me to see the work of a radio journalist from a new perspective, to bring stories to listeners, and, I hope, to excite and inspire them through my favorite medium – sound.
