Marina was born in Belgrade in 1983. She finished Fourth Belgrade High School, and later on graduated from the Faculty of Philosophy in Belgrade, Department of Philosophy. If she was born in another country, on another planet or in another time, she would probably be engaged in philosophy, mathematics, art and pedagogy, but the current situation in society disturbs her. She believes in people and believes that together, if we put in a little effort and organize, we can make miracles happen. In 2009 in Serbia on the move, she found people who have grown tired of waiting for changes to happen by themselves, people who have not lost hope that in our country one can live in dignity and who believe that there is a huge untapped potential in each of us. Like a great hedonist she is, she enjoys interacting with people with whom she shares same values and ideals.

She likes sincere smiles (when your eyes smile), the sea, Durmitor Mountain, photography, chocolate and cherries, cats. She makes great cakes. She joined Serbia on the Move to learn some new things and to stop being “just a student”.

Besides the experience she gained at Serbia on the Move, what’s still keeping her there is not just the constant opportunity for personal development, but first and foremost the people she gathers. She likes their values and differences, and the fact that they don’t wait for somebody else to solve the problem if something bothers them. Instead, they take the initiative. It’s the company that doesn’t stop at first obstacle and first “no”, but starts working even harder, focuses on the goal and in the end says “We did it!”.
