ABOUT NIKOLA
My name is Nikola, I'm 24 years old and I am a third culture kid! I grew up in Switzerland, Hungary and Singapore, in a bicultural household (English/Hungarian). At 18 I moved to England and completed my undergraduate degree in English Literature & Theatre, and went on to do a Masters in Media Industries at the University of Leeds. I’m currently based in London.
On this website you will find my CV plus lots of examples of my work and passion projects - mainly in the areas of Media and the Performing Arts.
My whole life these two areas have interested me most, and since graduating I have pursued them wholeheartedly; I previously worked as a Production Assistant at audio-branding company Wisebuddah, before diving into the freelance world in May 2024. Since then, I've been splitting my time between Greatest Hits Radio, Virgin Radio and Filmbright as an (Assistant) Producer. I’m also a radio presenter at the weekend on Eirewave and Radio Essentials.
During my time at university, I was an avid member of Leeds Student Radio and Stage Musicals Society, where I partook in presenting and producing, and performing and choreographing, respectively. I also took on leadership roles in both these societies I massively enjoyed.
I hope this website provides insight into what drives me and the skills I possess – please feel free to get in touch!
