_ABOUT_ME
          

I was born on June 19, 1981. I spent my childhood in the Slovenian small town of Podgrad but now I live in Ljubljana, the capital of Slovenia.

Arts and beauty bewitched me as early as I was a little girl when I used to create unusual trendy combinations borrowing my mother's clothes and jewelry. Soon afterwards I began to sew my own clothes and make jewelry, at the beginning only for my dolls, later on also for myself. It was therefore no coincidence that I decided to study jewelry design.

Then I got my first offers in modeling that led me from my hometown to big cities like Miami, Paris, Los Angeles, London, Istanbul, Munich… I also took part in 13 national and world beauty contests and each one of them brought me some title or a crown. The last title Miss Universe Slovenia 2002 has been the dearest to me so far. I keep some magnificent memories on the Miss Universe beauty contest 2002 that was held in Porto Rico – I was even elected Miss Best Figure! Since I handed over my crown I have been participating in the Miss Universe Slovenia project.

Next, very and the most important step for me was wining the crown for Miss Slovenia 2006. The beauty contest Miss World 2006 was held in Poland, where I was elected in top 20 for Miss swimsuits from 104 girls and get on 14th place.

In Slovenia, I have become well known also by my fashion designing and styling, and I have already dressed up many famous Slovenians. One of my strongest wishes is to develop my own fashion line of clothes and jewelry.

Moreover, as a member of the management board of the international peace foundation called The White Dove I strive to spread the idea of peace all around the world. As The White Dove's representative I attend various charity and peace events.

Last but not least, I enjoy facing challenges and with no doubt one of the most interesting ones was the invitation I got from the Slovenia TV to test my IQ by the Slovenian MENSA commission. The MENSA organization is based on the idea of forming a society for high intelligent people from all over the world, with the only qualification for membership being a high IQ - over 148. I responded to the invitation and after a week I received the results: "You have an IQ of 156. This is the result attained only by one percent of the world population." What a score! Of course, I was more than satisfied with such results. Slovenian media rapidly spread the news and after a while I started receiving phone calls from TV stations and newspapers from all over the world ( CNN, BBC, New York Times…). The story of the beauty queen which denies stereotypes of dumb models flooded the Internet! I was even called Miss MENSA!

Beauty is everything we contemplate through love. (Christian Morgenstern).
