Born in 1976 in Poznan, where she studied at the Adam Mickiewicz University at the College of Foreign Languages and later at the School of Interpreters.

In addition to painting, the artist is fascinated by book illustration, as she believes it is an important field of art that influences the youngest and shapes their view of the surrounding world. Her illustrator's works have been exhibited twice at the Illustrators' Salon during the Children and Youth Book Fair in Poznań. There was also a children's book written by Jerzy Sieklucki entitled. "Wnukochwilki" with illustrations by the artist. The artist has lived and worked in Polanica-Zdrój for many years.
