Experience

Mirela has always believed that good writing should do more than inform—it should guide, empower, and occasionally entertain. Her career began in high-stakes fields like medical and legal writing, where precision and clarity were non-negotiable. 

In 2025, her curiosity about chance, reward systems, and the psychology of play led her to Chipy and the world of online casinos.Today, she helps global players navigate a vast, sometimes confusing iGaming landscape—whether they’re choosing a new platform, comparing bonus terms, or learning what volatility really means for their next spin.

As a senior writer at Chipy, she focuses on:

Casino guides for gamblers from around the world. From banking options to licensing and game availability, she builds location-specific pages that help international users find trusted, convenient places to play.

Slot math, made simple. Mirela runs structured 100-spin sessions on new titles, turning figures like RTP, hit rate, and volatility into actionable insights for your bankroll.

Payments, tested and timed. She highlights which casinos are serious about player well-being, from self-exclusion programs to deposit limits and responsible gambling policies.

Tools for safe play. From self-exclusion programs to deposit limits and responsible-gambling policies, she highlights which casinos are serious about player wellbeing.

Before Chipy, Mirela’s work spanned industries where clarity was king and details mattered:

  • Clinical skincare guides sharpened her skill in decoding dense research for readers looking for trustworthy advice.
  • Wellness & lifestyle writing taught her to speak plainly without losing substance—a tone she now brings to every gambling guide.
  • Automotive tech required breaking down torque curves and engine logic—skills she now uses to explain bonus engines and RNG systems with equal ease

Her background in IT adds another layer of expertise: with formal training in statistics, algorithms, and data analysis, she knows how to read the numbers behind the games—and spot red flags others might miss.
