She was born in 2007 in Szekszárd. She graduated from Garay János High School in Szekszárd in 2026, having taken advanced classes in biology and English. She is currently a psychology undergraduate at the University of Pécs.

Scientific research, which started as a way to earn extra admission points, has now become an essential part of her life. She began studying the folk art of the Sárköz region in 2024, focusing on the ‘bíborvég’ embroidery. In 2025, she received the grand prize at the 25th Scientific Student Conference (TUDOK) with her presentation titled ‘Bíborvég – The Garment Element Defining the Identity of Sárköz Wear, Culture, and People’. This led to an invitation to the Káptalanfüred National Student Conference. To this day, she remains committed to preserving cultural traditions.

In 2025, she was awarded the Kazinczy Memorial Medal at the 53rd ‘Édes Anyanyelvünk’ Competition. In 2026, she achieved 12th place in the National Secondary School Academic Competition (OKTV) in Hungarian language. She graduated from high school with an intermediate-level English language certificate and advanced-level school-leaving examinations in biology and English. In the future, she would like to conduct research in the field of psychology.

She considers herself an open-minded and curious individual. She enjoys organizing, taking on leadership roles, and spending time with people and children. Her ambition and strong will drive her to revisit problems, uncover the smallest details, and seek out new perspectives. In her free time, she participates in folk dancing, as well as singing, acting, and a few sports.

She has been a member of the Hungarian Research Student Association (KutDiák Movement) for a year and a half (in 2026, she served as the Head of the Humanities and Social Sciences Department). During this time, she has learned and grown considerably thanks to the community, and she hopes that through her own work she has inspired—and will continue to inspire—many others to embark on the rewarding path of research and science. She confidently says that the KutDiák Movement is truly a place where everyone can find their place by being true to who they are, and that no one ever returns home from the Káptalanfüred camp without new friends, unforgettable memories, and lifelong experiences.

I am the best version of myself. And only what I leave behind will remain after me.
