Darko was born in Tivat, on the picturesque coast of Montenegro, where he has spent most of his life. Growing up by the sea deeply influenced his path—he attended the Maritime Nautical High School and later earned a degree in Management of Customs, Forwarding, and Agency Business.

His professional journey began at the renowned superyacht marina, Porto Montenegro, which served as a natural gateway into the yachting industry. In 2015, Darko became part of IYC, joining the team at the launch of its Montenegro office.

With a strong connection to the sea, deep regional knowledge, and nearly a decade of experience, Darko has become a trusted figure in the Mediterranean yachting scene. He is happily married and a proud father of two sons and a daughter.
