Short Bio
I was born and educated in Moscow, Russia and am fully bilingual in Russian and English. My family immigrated to Boston, Massachusetts. I attended Columbia University and have a Bachelor's degree in English literature. After college I settled down in New York City and worked there as a professional interpreter for the following 10 years. In 1990, I relocated to Moscow to attend a graduate program in film directing. After finishing the program, I moved to Los Angeles and have continued working as a professional translator and interpreter in a variety of fields, including law, business, entertainment, medicine, insurance, accounting, oil and gas, the automotive industry and investment.
