"As a female entrepreneur, I believe that support and information are one of the most important gifts that someone can receive when they start on the business journey. JA offered me these two precious things that put me on an international and amazing path where I succeeded to learn life-long lessons and to fully live my dreams."

Four years ago Claudia started her first company which provided educational courses, camps and events for children aged 5 to 13.

She is currently the founder and creative director of Kidster, a company that offers educational programs for children, with activities in Bucharest and Pitesti.

She also founded her second start up, tortulet.ro, an online cake shop. Lately she has also been the producer of the show "KIDster of the Week" on Youtube.

In March 2014 Claudia was included in the Top Forbes Romania “30 under 30 ".
