In 2000 started to work there as a child psychologist specialized in autism; and in 2003 moved to Budapest, where I married Sándor Zwack, from who I have 2 beautiful amazing children.

Here I continued working as a child psychologist introducing the floortime method in treating autism in various institutions (Autizmus Alapitvány, Korai Fejlesztő Központ and Nemzetközi Cseperedő Alapitvány - foundation I helped to create). In 2011, though, started dedicating my time to my hobbies, namely acting and in particularly singing. Currently I am trying to integrate all these different aspects of my life and of who I am into one...

Who am ? - Leo

A mixture between everything and definitely technologically challenged
