Maria is a philologist and has been involved in journalism for the last 15 years. She is the mother to an 11 year old princess and a 9 year old prince who suffers from autism. Her son’s autism was what pushed her and motivated her to make drastic changes to herself which in turn transformed her entire personal and professional life. This is how she began to publish “Special Life” in 2009, along with a small team of associates, a magazine about autism and P.D.D. (Pervasive Developmental Disorders). The aim of the magazine is to bring awareness, support and a connection for people dealing with the condition in a sensitive and positive way. “Special Life” has already built its own community and Maria has become responsible for keeping the members up to date and bonded together. The magazine has managed to make a significant impact on helping sufferers be heard and noticed and aware that they are not alone. Maria believes that every time life tests us, along with it comes the opportunity to discover our inner strengths and to act beyond our physical limits, which can have an on-going influence not only on ourselves and our lives but on the people around us too.

32 years old, born and bred in Athens – Greece. I have studied Communication Arts majoring in Public Relations.
I have worked as: Production Manager Assistant and Production Coordinator in more than 100 t.v commercials over the past 11 years and I still do mainly as a Production Coordinator. I have also tried the “taste” of theatrical and film production in the same job position. What still holds me in this ‘crazy’ professional environment is the few but priceless magic moments that it offers.
I have a passionate interest in every creative mean and that forced me to attend seminars on Script – Writing and Photography. I am a music lover most of all and a strong believer that music is the ultimate language; the the most precious luggage I carry and share. I recently created my communicative channel: themuzikbooks.blogspot.com
That’s all.
