Business Philosophy

I love helping people, making new friends, solving small and large problems that come up in the process and seeing how my actions, skills and experience can change the lives of others. I am lucky to experience this, it's a blast and keeps me going!

Professional

Before coming over to Bay Area in 2001, I have graduated from one of Moscow's best law schools. Instead of pursuing career in law in California, I started working in sales. After years in automotive and high tech industries in 2000's I've switched over to real estate in 2010. Initially I mostly worked with investors and contractors. In 2012 I've got my real estate license, joined the Coldwell Banker and never looked back. Over the years I have helped my many clients in San Francisco Bay Area, Sacramento area and also Tuolumne County near by Yosemite National Park. I will go where ever my clients need me. Best excuse to travel! :)

I have experience with new construction, remodels and all stages of project management. Whether it is a regular single family home, town home/condo or a manufactured home - I have been there and done that. I have also done and managed long term and short term (vacation) rentals. Over the years I've worked on many projects myself and have a strong understanding and hands on experience with all the major systems and components of a typical residential home/building.

That being said, there's always something new. While I have to continuously change with a fast paced market to remain on the leading edge, my core values - honesty, integrity, and respect, remain a WINNING combination around which I build my business.

Personal

I was born in Ukraine and have also lived in Russia before moving over to the California in 2001. I am fluent in English, Russian and Ukrainian languages.

I enjoy my life one day at a time. I'm happily married and have 2 kids. 

Bay Area and California in general is like a one huge play ground! There's so much that you can do all year around. I like spending time outdoors, bike, hike, camp, ride ATVs and motorcycles on and off road, all kinds of water sports. I enjoy skiing in the winter and going down to the desert when the cold gets old. I also enjoy sailing in San Francisco and Monterey Bays and dream of cruising around the World one day, as soon as my crew is ready.
