Hetzmann Mercédesz
I'm Merci Hetzmann, editor and reviser at Daily News Hungary since 2021. I started my career here with 3 months of internship, after which I became a full-time editor. I live in the Hungarian countryside with my partner and our Botanical Lego sets and plushies. When I am not working, I am either gaming or working on making our small flat lovelier. Working to deliver relevant news to you, our readers, day after day. Find my LinkedIn and DNH articles below.
