Date and place of birth: November 12th, 1978, Belgrade

He went to Elementary school “Gornja Varoš” in Zemun and The Tenth Belgrade Gymnasium “Mihajlo Pupin”. He finished his graduation thesis “Geoheritage of Zlatibor County”, under the supervision of Ph.D. Milutin Lješević, in 2007 with a score of 10, thus became a graduate geographer, with an average score of 9.00. Master thesis “Application of Geographic Information Systems in the Study of Natural Potentials and Degraded Areas on the Example of Ub Municipality”, was finished in 2009, under the mentorship of Ph.D. Slavoljub Dragićević, thus became a master geographer in the field of environmental, with an average score 10.00. He entered the PhD studies at the Faculty of Geography at year 2011. In 2016, he defended his doctoral thesis “Natural Conditions аs Determinants оf Geohazards оn the Example of Ljig, Jošanička and Vranjskobanjska River Basins”, under the mentorship of Ph.D. Slavoljub Dragićević.

In 2007 he was hired as a demonstrator in the classroom at the Faculty of Geography. Since 2009, he is employed at the Faculty of Geography, first as a researcher-trainee on the project 146005: “The Intensity of Mechanical and Chemical Erosion and Accumulation in Eastern Serbia”, then on the project 43007: “Research of Climate Change and its Impact on the Environment, Monitoring of Influence, Adaptation and Mitigation”. In 2011 he was appointed as Assistant, and in 2017 as Assistant Professor for the scientific field Geospatial and Environmental Science on the University of Belgrade – Faculty of Geography.
