After seven years working at different radio stations, and almost two years working at MTV Adria, I gained excellent knowledge about popular music and very good working habits, which led me to believe, that I am now properly equipped for greater challenges. I am looking for a job, where I could advance my career, use my expertise, and contribute to my future employer.
