I was born in the former Communist Socialist Soviet Union, now it's known as Ukraine. After the collapse of the Soviet Union life was very difficult. Our family left Ukraine and moved to the United States of America in 1995. We had to start over, had nothing and could not speak English. I went to a normal school and studied hard to learn the language. I started working part-time and summers as early as age 14 while still going to school. I have never failed a class and still managed to get good grades. I graduated High School and work on many different jobs where I learned skills and met many different people. When I was let go from my last job because of the shortage of work I started my own business. Over the years I have grown that business and opened other businesses. My ultimate mission in life is to help many people like myself overcome themselves to reach great potential and make this world a better place as a result.
