Brief Biography
 
I was born in Russia and grew up there, later I moved to Latvia and stayed there for a period of time. In 1995, my family and I moved to Canada, where we have been living up until now. I have a university degree in Economics (with Honours) and I worked for the government as a financial specialist. From 1995, I worked as a Manager of the company that specializes in advertising and marketing on the Internet. Presently I work as a licensed real estate sales representative in the brokerage Century 21 St.Andrew's Realty Inc. (Greater Toronto Area, Canada).

I'm married and have one son. My husband is an IT specialist with PhD in Computer Science. He has also been involved in journalism and photography for many years. He is a member of The Canadian Association of Journalists. My son has obtained his Bachelor's Degree in Computer Science from the University of Toronto. He continues his studies at the University of Toronto in the PhD program.
 

My hobbies
 
The passion of my life is travelling. My husband and I share this passion and we try to use every possibility to get away. Because my husband is a journalist and a photographer, we travel to places that are out of the path of "normal" tourists. I love sports, especially tennis (I mean big tennis) and mountain skiing. I also love snorkeling and scuba diving. I try to stay fit, do yoga exercises, weights and some wired poses and movements.

If you ask - how much do my interests and hobbies help me in my work? I would answer, that I wouldn't be able to maintain the high level of my professional skills without them. All my life experience gave me the ability to adjust to new environment and challenges, and helped me to better understand the life in other countries and people with different background. Therefore, I have a great advantage when working with my clients, many of whom came to Canada from different parts of the world.
 
We live in a complicated world and it is getting more complicated year-by-year. So it is becoming more and more challenging to perform professional duties on a high level. Real estate industry is not an exception, especially in Canada. During the past decade the rules, legal requirements, amount of documentation, and procedures have changed dramatically. The one who work in this field must now possess not only up-to-date knowledge in real estate, but have an experience and skills in other areas and have the ability to quickly adjust to new environments, face the challenges and use new options.
 
In my work I try to keep up with these challenges and use all modern tools and possibilities to provide my clients with services on the highest level.
 
I also firmly believe that it is very important to earn trust and respect from your client. Just to be a knowledgeable and dedicated specialist is not enough. I am always honest with my clients and sincerely care about them. I focus on their needs and make sure that they get the most of the purchase, or sale, or investment that I helped them with. At the end, what matters most is a happy client.

Real Estate Sales Representative

 
I'm a licensed real estate sales representative, member of Toronto Real Estate Board (TREB), Canadian Real Estate Association (CREA) and Ontario Real Estate Association (OREA). This means that I am qualified to provide professional assistance in all operations with real estate in Ontario (Canada). I can also help with purchase and sale of residential and commercial property in other parts of Canada as well as in other countries. I work in the world's largest real estate company - Century 21, brokerage St.Andrew's Realty Inc., located in the Greater Toronto Area.

I have a degree in Economics and work experience in the financial and advertising industries. I've also worked with legal documents and dealt with government organizations. Therefore, I bring my expertise in different fields to my job as a real estate agent. And I offer many other advantages that my clients could benefit from.

For those who plan to sell or buy real estate in Canada (specifically in the Greater Toronto Area), I offer my service. I deal with residential and commercial property, including property for investment. I can also arrange property management for those who do not live in Toronto.

In addition to working with Canadian real estate, I offer my help in buying property in vacation spots in the Caribbean region such as Florida (USA), Mayan Riviera (Mexico), Panama and Costa Rica. I work in cooperation with reliable local realtors, who know very well the real estate market in their regions. As a Buyer Agent I represent my clients and protect their interests when they make purchase in foreign countries. I control the whole process from selection a property to closing the deal. I make sure that all legal requirements are met and that my client would not have any problems in the future.
