Born in Athens, Greece, I studied Marketing and Fine Arts at Georgetown University in Washington, D.C. followed by communication design and illustration at Pratt Institute in N.Y. In 2000, I worked as a marketing and PR manager and later became the youngest president of Sunny Sports Club in Athens. In 2003, I co-founded Sonar, a marketing and design consulting firm, where I spent the next 15 years creating and promoting brands across Europe.
I am also a best selling author and illustrator of twelve picture books published by Dioptra Publishing in Greek. In the past three years, I have given more than 250 book presentations to children, parents and educators, and I have been featured numerous times on Greek TV and Radio.
I am the 1999 recipient of the John Peter’s Publication Award and Scholarship from the N.Y. Art Directors Club and I have earned a Bronze Pentaward for my work in packaging design. I am a member of the Greek Section of the International Board on Books for Young People (IBBY).
