Writer | Film Critic | Independent Journalist | Filmmaker

I’m a Dublin, Ireland-based independent writer and filmmaker, originally from Bulgaria with international producing and writing experience. With already 5 years of experience in film criticism under my belt, I have covered prestige film festivals such as Cannes Film Festival, Galway Film Fleagh, Dublin International Film Festival and recently Edinburgh International Film Festival, attended multiple press screenings and conducted interviews with various industry professionals, more recently with Pulitzer Prize-winning journalist Justin Chang. 

I’ve also worked professionally within a TV environment, specifically a writer's room, and have further experience with production assistance on set and event management, as well as some copywriting and translating service.

MINT Emerging Critics Scheme 2026

This February marked the first time in my professional experience that I got to serve on a film jury panel being selected as a member of the Emerging Critics Jury for this years' MINT Chinese Film Festival. 

I had the chance to watch the entire short film programme and write reviews on a few features.

Big thank you to Wenqi Zhang and the whole team for selecting me for this amazing experience filled with exciting and innovative projects.
