Since becoming a Los Angeles resident in August 2014, she joined three different acting schools and launched a multipurpose company called THE VANOOSH GROUP. Under the production branch of the company she wrote, produced and starred in films like SWITCH HITTER (2015) and SOLILOQUY (2016).
In May 2016 her film, SOLILOQUY, won the "Best Short Film" award at the International Filmmaker Festival of World Cinema in Nice, France.
As a fan of the arts and always eager to learn about different cultures, Ivana is now fluent in Spanish, English, French, Italian, and is on her way to learn Russian.
She has specialized in Acting for Film and Television, has starred in a number of independent projects and is currently writing, producing and starring in multiple new projects, many in partnership with Two Hands Productions and Lemon Films.

Robolliance is a forum for technology partners and industry experts in robotics, surveillance and security meant for advancing the understanding and awareness of the Autonomous and Automated Robotics marketplace.
History
The Robolliance forum was launched at PSA Security Network’s TEC 2016 on May 10, 2016 with Sharp Corporation as its Founding Sponsor. Among other sponsors of the forum include some of the household names in security and technology such as Bell & Howell, Autonomous Solutions, Inc., Rajant Corporation, and others.
Mission and objective
The Robolliance forum has an initiative focused on ground-based security robotics and to promote the Autonomous and Automated Robotics category with specificity to Unmanned Ground Vehicles (UGVs). The objective of the program is to create an ecosystem followership, bridge the gap between end-users, sales channel technology providers, and to find information in security solutions as they relate to emerging robotics technology.

The quality assurance of qualifications, in the education system in England, Northern Ireland and Wales, aims to confirm the validity and standard of educational qualifications held by individuals.
How quality assurance works
The quality assurance process works by measuring learners’ achievement in the assessment component of a qualification against a set of clearly defined quality standards. This is opposed to measuring the learning undertaken throughout the course leading to the qualification.
For general academic qualifications, quality assurance is done largely by measuring learners’ achievement in exams, although other means of Assessment may be measured, such as coursework. For vocational qualifications, quality assurance is done mainly by measuring achievement in coursework, or by direct observation of the learner.
Responsibility for quality assurance
The quality assurance of qualifications is the responsibility of the various United Kingdom Awarding Bodies that offer qualifications to learners, which in turn are regulated by the Office of the Qualifications and Examinations Regulator in England, the bMZXmX ZmZXCouncil for the Curriculum, Examinations & Assessment in Northern Ireland and the Department for Children, Education, Lifelong Learning and Skills in Wales.
The awarding bodies are represented by two membership bodies, the Federation of Awarding Bodies (for vocational qualifications) and the Joint Council for Qualifications.
Details of all the qualifications accredited by the three regulators are held on the National Database of Accredited Qualifications.
National Framework of Qualifications
In addition, accredited qualifications in England, Northern Ireland and Wales are categorised into nine levels, set out in the National Qualifications Framework.
The framework groups together qualifications that place similar demands on learners. However, within any one level, qualifications can cover a wide mix of subjects, and take different amounts of time to complete.
Only those qualifications that have been accredited by the three regulators can be included in the framework.
The future of qualifications
Vocational qualifications in England, Wales and Northern Ireland are currently being reformed with a view to introducing a credit-based approach to these qualifications within a new Qualifications and Credit Framework.
The framework will allow learners to study, be assessed and achieve units of a qualification at their own pace. Each unit will carry a measure of credit that represents the size and demand of each unit. Units will be able to be ‘banked’ and, if wanted, transferred to another recognised qualification. This approach is currently being tested by schools, colleges, training providers, employers and others.

Hannah Harrison Barnes (née Lowe) (1795 - 1883) is believed by some descendants and others (see below, "The claim") to have been the daughter of George IV of the United Kingdom and his early wife and continuing paramour Maria Fitzherbert, a relationship whose trajectory was defined when the marriage was declared illegal for want of royal approval (as required by the Royal Marriages Act of 1772).
Lowe was born at Knightsbridge, London in 1795 and lived a simple life in Coventry; she married Samuel Barnes and is reported to have worked many years as a ribbon maker, and to have died alone in a workhouse (see below). She died at age 87 in January 1883 (date discrepancy, 26 or 29 January), and was predeceased by her husband Samuel in 1875 (aged 79) with whom she is buried at London Road Cemetery in Coventry. Professor of War Studies at the University of Buckingham, with some attribution of credibility. Notably, any such historical claim is accompanied by controversy, and many on the preceding list have been challenged.
A consolidated list based on genealogical research in Coventry has Lowe's descendants to include:
*Daughter Sarah Dadley (née Barnes), baptized 29 September 1817, St. Michaels Church, Coventry; died age 79; buried 2 February 1896 (incl. information from Barnes gravestone/burial records).
*Son Samuel Barnes, baptized 9 June 1826, St. Michaels Church, Coventry; died at age 82; buried 12 December 1908 (incl. information from Barnes gravestone/burial records).
*Daughter Emma Marson (née Barnes), baptismal date unknown, died age 83; buried 5 June 1928 (incl. information from Barnes gravestone/burial records).
*Joseph Barnes, baptized 14 June 1819, St. Michaels Church, Coventry.
*Ann Barnes, baptized 1 October 1821, St. Michaels Church, Coventry.
*Hannah Barnes, baptized 24 March 1824, St. Michaels Church, Coventry.
*Mary Barnes, baptized 20 October 1828, St. Michaels Church, Coventry.
*Thomas Barnes, baptismal record and other dates and locations unknown.
*Jane Barnes, baptismal record and other dates and locations unknown.
*Ann Barnes, baptismal record and other dates and locations unknown (redundancy with earlier entry noted).
*Ibrahim(a.k.a. Peter)Leadley, surviving great-great-great grandson, descended through Joseph Barnes, lineage proveable, baptismal record and location known.
*Kay Donald Clark, surviving great-great-great granddaughter, descended through youngest daughter Ann of Hannah and Samuel Barnes, baptismal record and location unknown.<ref name="ancestry2006"/>
