She earned her MgA. Degree at Prague’s Academy of Art, Architecture, and Design in 2006, having studied at the Glass Studio under Professor Vladimír Kopecký and at Sculpture Studio with Professor Jiří Beránek. She also studied at the Westerhof School of Art and Design, Häme Polytechnic in Finland.

Besides her art studio practice, she worked as the Head of the Glass Workshop at Glass Studio at AAAD in Prague between 2008 – 2013, teaching kiln-glass techniques, such as glass casting, fusing, slumping, pate de verre, and experimental techniques. She has worked as an Assistant Professor at Glass Studio at AAAD in Prague since 2011.
