I graduated from the Faculty of Education in Ústí nad Labem, majoring in Primary Education. I worked for 8 years as a primary school teacher. Then I exchanged active teaching for work of a methodologist and an education trainer and participated in the development of innovative projects for schools. I also founded own business Gusto Energy in a completely different field of design and production of technological switchboards, automation of industrial machines and the implementation of IoT technology.

​

The impulse for my return to the teaching profession was the cooperation with the network of private primary schools Heuréka, where I worked for several years as the principal of a primary school. I was at the birth of the 1. IT Gymnázium and I participate in it's management, ensuring mainly administrative matters and the smooth operation of the school.

​

Since 2014, I have been cooperating with the AFS organisation. As a host family we welcomed into our home  students from Chile, Turkey, Bosnia and Herzegovina, Italy and Hungary, each student for 3-10 months. I am an active member of the Okrášlovací spolek Rašín. I have two children aged 21 and 24.
