She has translated contemporary Serbian playwrights from Serbian (Tanja Šljivar, Biljana Srbljanović, Milena Marković, Maja Pelević, Milena Bogavac, etc.),  as well as theory (Introduction to Performance Studies by Aleksandra Jovićević and Anya Vujanović). She has edited several collections of contemporary Slovak and Vojvodina drama.
