Summary
During my 23-year career in the private and public sectors, I have held a number of positions, from the president of the tourist board, head of the administrative department for the economy, accounting expert and member of the supervisory board of Croatian companies.
I would primarily describe myself as a project manager because that is what I have done throughout my career.
My most important work is related to EU projects that I have implemented in the City of Šibenik. I would like to mention the largest ones such as Integrated Mobility in the area of the City of Šibenik, TROKUT entrepreneurial center, Coral center on the island of Zlarin and the renovation of the St. John's fortress. In addition to EU projects, I have worked mostly on strategies ranging from urban mobility, revitalization of the old city core to the most important strategy of the city of Šibenik. I continue the strategic planning process as the director of the Institute for Spatial Planning of Šibenik-Knin County.
I participated in five URBACT networks:
RetaiLink as partner city
Vital Cities as partner city
KAIROS as partner city
C-Change as partner city
Residents of the Future as lead partner.
I have also participated in many Urbact events: The Urbact University at Rotterdam, The Urbact City Festival of Lisbon, Tallin and Paris, where I was often a panelist.
