Her recent work focuses on folklore, inter-lingual crossovers, myth, ritual, and melody.

Her work has appeared in Seedlings, Bad Saturn Media, Wrong Directions, The Ekphrastic Review, OKNO.MK, Diversity – International Review for Literature, and three Macedonian anthologies. She has been hosted by the Edinburgh International Book Festival, StAnza Poetry Festival, and Struga Poetry Evenings. Her visual poetry has featured at StAnza 2023 and at the off-page 24 visual poetry exhibition at Many Studios, Glasgow.
