Board of Directors
Radenka Vojnovic, President
Leading finance and business development at the Serbian Cultural Center of Seattle and its Theatre Srce, I collaborate with the Board of Directors to advance both organizations’ missions. In my professional capacity, I navigate complex legal matters as an expert witness. As a volunteer Serbian language teacher at St. Sava School, I contribute to preserving linguistic and cultural heritage. Actively engaged in initiatives promoting women’s leadership, I advocate for empowerment and systemic change.
Balancing roles as a wife, mother, entrepreneur, and humanitarian, my endeavors are driven by a commitment to making a meaningful impact. Exploring new destinations, flying small planes, and pursuing academic research are among my passions.
I am excited to make my amateur debut in the play “The Pocket Watch,” a play that holds personal significance due to the influence of war on my childhood.
Mira Martinovic, Vice President
Writing and theater have always been the marrow of my being. After writing, directing and producing several children’s plays for our Saint Sava School, I am now the playwright and director of Sat, a play loosely based on the incredible graphic novel written by Dragan Lazarevic. This work has been fulfilling beyond words!
As a person, I am a mother, wife, writer, blogger, community member and an undaunted pacifist and optimist.
In the professional sphere, after twenty years in academic and corporate training, several years ago I trajected into the Change Management field—another fulfilling feat of my life.
Silvija Jakovljevic, Secretary
A civil engineer by education and a volunteer teacher by calling. Blessed to be a mother, wife, daughter, sister, and friend. An Orthodox Christian by choice.
I spend my free time dancing, laughing, and reading with friends.
It’s very important to me that the Cyrillic alphabet and our culture are preserved and fostered to ensure they take root in our children and many future generations to come.
Bjanka Marceta, Treasurer
E-commerce entrepreneur with a background in Economics. A digital marketing and AI enthusiast, always looking for new ways to connect and engage audiences. Serbian language teacher at St. Sava Church in Seattle, substitute paraeducator in the local school district, mother of three, and wife.
Volunteering for the Serbian Cultural Center and Theater Srce has been a wonderful creative outlet where I can imagine, test, and put my ideas to work, while continually deepening connections within the Seattle community.
In my free time, I enjoy taking nature walks with my dog Lola, listening to my favorite podcasts, and spending time with my favorite people.
