I have 3 years modeling experience, starting with photo art modelling, then editorial and beauty and more recently also catwalk modeling. I am also a dancer and actress so I am adding a bit more to a photo session. I really like doing that along with my other passions as it is always a performace and changing the skin.
Designers I modeled for: Lamia Asudari, Paulina Palian, Magdalena Nowosadzka, Charles of London, JoeBol Exquisite
Photographers I worked with: Storm Studios, David Kerr, Simon Klyne, David Fennel, Paulina Jakubiuk, Jakub Kokczynski, James Mori, Pavlito vel Pablo, Shaun Hodge, Hassan Kausar, Sam Matt, James Hall

I started my dance education in 2001 from contemporary dance classes with Dada von Bzdulow Theatre, physical theatre, improvisation and african dance on the workshops in Poland. I also danced with Gdansk University Dance Group in 2005-2006. Then after I studied choreography, ballet, jazz, street and more contemporary in Kensington and Chelsea college and Lewisham college in London on full time courses. In the mean time I took part in many international dance workshops in Poland and Uk, like The Place Summer Intensives in London, Dance Conference in Bytom or Dada Hub in Sopot.
In 2010 I founded Dark Soul Dance Theatre and since then I produced 17 shows , choreographing, directing and performing with different dancers and artists from other backgrounds in London and UK.
My stronges points are freestyle, contact improvisation, floor work in release contemporary and partner work.
My attitudes - creativity, strong performance and great flow in working with other dancers.
