Katarina is originally from Slovakia and has a background in human nursing. She also spent many years working in the Irish Healthcare system. In 2025, Katarina qualified as an RVN and worked in an exotic referral hospital in Bray, and also a mixed practice for some time in Wexford. 

Her passion for wound care comes from personal and professional experience. Katarina started bandaging when I was 5 years old – having exudative eczema on both hands, she very quickly understood the bandage that was effective versus the one that would cause further issues.

Katarina is proud to be a Bandaging Angel, because she has a passion for learning and passing on the knowledge that can save limbs and lives.

Katarina is a proud pet mum to her cat Marmie and rabbit Teddy and when she is not with them, you can find her walking on a hill, swimming indoors or in the sea or having a relaxing cup of hot chocolate.
