Olga was born and grew up in the Far East region of Russia, close to the Japanese Sea and later moved to Belarus. Olga now lives in Vermont with her husband Joff.

Olga wrote her first story at age seven, and her first play at age nine. Olga eventually became a children’s teacher and coach, and she continues to keep alive the best tradition of teaching found within her family for generations. She has worked in different places with varying responsibilities and has lived in many locations ranging from a small village to a huge metropolis. For as long as she can remember, she has always written and painted.

The first of Olga’s books to be published consisted of 30 fairy tales that she created for her two sons and daughter. Gradually, step by step, there were books, magazine articles for teachers and parents, plays, and scripts for children’s television. You can find Olga’s works on her online bookshop.

Olga continues to create books for children and parents and states: “I will be happy if the heroes of my stories support parents to raise their children and help them to create a solid foundation for a successful and happy life based on the best human qualities and family values. I create my stories with my heart . . . For me, all the children on Earth are our children . . . I also have in my heart an amazing happy child who loves Nature and can exclaim in wonder, Wow . . . It is so interesting! And moreover, has a lot of questions as to Why?”
