Katalin is responsible for expanding MCC Brussel's academic network and promoting events in the fields of history, memory culture and the arts. A native of the Hungarian minority in Slovakia, she is one of the founders of the first Slovak Jewish museums in Presov and Bratislava. She witnessed the Velvet Revolution and the break-up of Czechoslovakia in Prague. After these historical turmoils come to end, she left the city of the Golden Towers and lived in different parts of the world. She obtained a Master's degree in Hebrew and Yiddish at INALCO in Paris and a PhD in Eastern European Studies at Aarhus University, where she taught for several years. In 2022, Katalin was awarded the Golden Cross of the Order of Merit of Hungary for her work in promoting Hungarian history, culture and religious traditions in Denmark, where she has spent more than two decades of her life.

Her wish for MCC Brussels is that it succeeds in making the ingenious and independent Hungarian spirit understood and respected in the EU's Bubble. The challenge seems insurmountable, but she believes that MCC Brussels can meet it.
