Where I started…

When I was young, I wanted to be either a music video director or a professional basketball player. In the end, neither of those dreams came true. However, I played basketball for 16 years, during which time I learned how to be part of a team while also being able to stand out when necessary.

When I needed to decide where to go after high school, I thought about different options.

1) study psychology to become a sports psychologist,

2) go to the Film and Theater university to become a film director, or

3) study marketing.

I like reading, but that wasn’t true when I was young. So, when I bought a preparation book for the psychology university’s entry exam, I was shocked. I could only finish the basic psychology book before the exam period. I thought there was no way I would be able to read enough to manage this university. In the end, I didn’t apply.

The second option was becoming a film director. I gave up on that dream because nobody around me knew how I could get into that university, and it seemed impossible. So I didn’t apply either.

Later on, I studied two film courses and worked in the film industry, but I will share that later.

In the end, I applied to the marketing program because I felt it was a mixture of psychology and making video ads.

I hated college. I didn’t like it at all. Many friends have great college memories. I don’t. I only learned something interesting during my internship at an advertising agency. I arranged that internship myself, not my school. In college, I had a ton of subjects that I don’t even remember the titles of because they were so irrelevant to me. The only thing I learned in college was how to speak confidently about random topics I knew nothing about. I passed most of my exams by speaking confidently about topics I didn’t know anything about. I went into the exams and figured things out there. Before college, I didn’t like public speaking, but I learned how to do it there.

Starting in an advertisement agency

An internship was required in the last semester. Most of my classmates went to companies that the school found for them, but I didn’t want to end up in a boring office. So, I asked around. I told my mom that I wanted to work for an advertising agency, so she asked her boss to connect me with one of his friends who owns a PR firm. I called my mom’s boss, and he gave me a number and a name. I called the gentleman, and he said it would be boring for me to intern in his company, but he gave me three names and numbers. One of them agreed to have me as an intern in his advertising agency. I was eager to start, so I asked if I could start in the summer. As soon as I finished my exams, I started my internship at the company.

Before the end of the semester, one of our teachers asked everyone in my class how much money they wanted to earn in their first year of their first job after finishing college. I told them a number, and everyone laughed, saying it was too high and that I would still be an intern. They accepted unpaid internships.

But I didn’t. When I started my internship, I was an assistant to two account executives at the agency. They were upset to learn that I was an unpaid intern. They told me to speak with the owner and ask for a salary. I did, and he was shocked at first, but he agreed. He actually raised my salary every three months, so by the time my internship ended six months later, I was making a decent salary. I received my full-time contract with the salary I mentioned in class at college. For others, it was unimaginable, but for me, it was a goal.

Experiences as second director assistant

I spent the next three years at this agency. I learned a lot about BTL and ATL. At the same time, I took a one-year basic directing course, where I learned a lot about filmmaking and editing. I met a guy who was a songwriter and plays writer. He introduced me to his friends, and I met young directors and DOPs.

I became friends with them, and one of the directors promised that he would call me when he had any jobs for me. After I asked him several times, he called me to be his second assistant director for a TV commercial shoot. Through this job, I met his first assistant, who became my mentor. I joined him, and we worked on several commercials together. I learned how to be a second assistant director.

At the same time, I took another course to become a unit manager because I was interested in that field as well. I started my own company so that I could legally work on projects alongside my full-time job.

Why I left the film industry?

I loved it. But as much as I loved the film industry, I realized that it is not a family-friendly work environment. At the time, I wasn’t in a serious relationship, but I knew that I wanted to have a family one day and that I didn’t want to compromise the time I wanted to spend with them. It was a difficult yet easy decision. It was hard because since I was young, I wanted to work in the film industry. But when I finally arrived, I realized that it didn’t fit with the lifestyle I wanted.

London, Church, leadership, Spain

After a while, Hungary felt too small to me, and I felt the need to see the world. I had traveled a lot with my parents, so I was familiar with Europe. But I wanted to try living in a different country. I wanted to move to Australia, but my mom convinced me that London would be a better option. It’s much closer, and I can learn English there. Once I’ve established my English skills, I can start the process to get a visa to Australia. It sounded reasonable, so I moved to London. I tried many things there and had many interesting experiences. It was great, but I felt that London was not the right place for me. So, I moved back to Budapest and started searching for my place.

I met a lot of new people and learned about MLM and church leadership. I became the public affairs director of Hungary for the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints. That experience taught me a lot. I met my future husband and learned a lot from many Americans who were leaders in the church and in their professional lives.

When my husband and I got married, we decided that Spain was a better option for us. So, I moved there to be with him. Now, I live in Spain.

My goal is to help clients focus on what they do best by managing the details behind the scenes, improving their operations, and creating scalable systems for growth.

What’s next?

I enjoy helping people find the right administrative solutions and build systems that work for them and their organization. I’m not the type of person to stay in a position too long. It becomes boring and monotonous. I like building systems, helping them run smoothly, and then moving on to a new challenge when they can run without me.

The timing of finding a new challenge depends on the project or situation.

My new idea is to start teaching others how to become virtual or executive assistants.
