Born and raised in Croatia, Sofia has had a special relationship with the dancefloor since her teenage years. It’s where she feels most free and connected to people. She lived in Italy where she discovered festivals, techno and the sense of belonging. In Amsterdam, this relationship strengthened and she realized her place is among artists, community builders, dancers, and dreamers. Joining AD has fuelled her passion to keep expanding her potential and building a thriving future for AD and our artists, but also for the techno community.
