My path into tech wasn't a pivot, it was an evolution. It began in the world of law, where I learned that clarity isn't a style, it's a requirement; precision isn't a preference, it's a principle.
My education, from the socio‑linguistic focus at "Stevan Puzic" High School to a Master of Laws from the University of Novi Sad and the Serbian Bar Exam, taught me how systems work, how language shapes outcomes, and how rules exist to be both understood and applied with rigor.
Little did I know, I wasn't just training to practice law. I was training to think like a product strategist, where every requirement is a clause, every user story is evidence, and every release is a verdict.
As a Court Trainee, Legal Advisor, and Corporate Counsel, I didn't just learn the law, I learned how systems enforce order, how language creates obligation, and how clarity prevents conflict.
That foundation, regulatory compliance, process optimization, and structured communication, became my secret weapon when I entered tech. My transition wasn't about leaving law behind; it was about applying its discipline to build digital products that are as reliable as they are innovative.
Today, I still think like a lawyer, I just build like a product leader.
Over the past 10 years as a Business Analyst, Product Owner, and Scrum Master, I've shaped products where technology meets regulation, fintech platforms, legal‑tech systems, and AI‑driven SaaS solutions.
My work has centered on translating complexity into clarity: collaborating with data science teams, architecting microservice ecosystems, and defining roadmaps that turn strategic vision into measurable impact. Agile, for me, isn't just a methodology, it's a mindset for delivering value in environments where change is constant and certainty is built, not assumed.
Whether leading backlog refinement, collaborating with cross‑functional teams, or driving end‑to‑end implementation, I apply the same principles I mastered in law: clarity, structure, and an unwavering focus on outcomes.
This unique blend—legal precision meets agile execution - is why leaders in fintech, AI, and regulated sectors consistently trust me with their most complex product challenges.
