1. Tell us a bit about yourself. Where are you from and what were you doing before arriving at THINK Global School?

I was born and raised in Bosnia and Herzegovina, a lovely heart-shaped country, as we like to point out, in the Balkans. I became a nomad at a very young age, not by choice, mind you, but due to the war that ravaged my country in the ’90s. However, ever since 2003, I chose to be a nomad, both for educational and career purposes, but really, mainly because I enjoyed learning from first-hand experiences. I graduated from St. John’s University, USA, with a BA in Secondary Education and an MA in Educational Leadership from St. Thomas University, USA, and have worked and lived in a few places around the world.

2. What aspects of THINK Global School’s educational model do you find most appealing?

The opportunity for students to learn from first-hand experiences and focus on individualized learning approaches.

3. If you could make one major change to global education, what would it be?

I would ensure that it is student-centered.

4. If you could visit anywhere in the world, where would it be?

Cuba

5. What is your favorite book, and why?

Midnight’s Children by Salman Rushdie – love the intricacy of Rushdie’s descriptions, use of language and sentence structure, and the unquestionable plausibility of magic realism interwoven with actual events
