I was born and raised in Uzbekistan, which was then part of the Soviet Union. After I finished high school, I studied at the ITMO University in St. Petersburg and graduated from it in 1984 with Masters in Engineering, specializing in Thermophysics. In 1995 my family and I moved to Canada, where from 1996 to 2003 I worked for a company that provided various types of home care.

In 2003-2005 I took pre-requisites for enrolling in the Physiotherapy Program at the University of Saskatchewan (UofS). However, after I took several craniosacral therapy treatments that changed my life, I decided I wanted to learn this technique. I enrolled in the PIMT massage therapy school here in Saskatoon, which I graduated from in 2007, and became a member of the Massage Therapist Association of Saskatchewan (MTAS) in June 2007. Starting in August 2007 and until recently, I had been working in Massage Therapy at RUH. In addition to regular massage, I practice infant massage, Thai Foot Massage & Reflexology, Thai Hand massage and Reflexology, Craniosacral Therapy and Visceral Manipulation.
