Bio: Olga Kostrova was born in Kiev in 1973 to a family that huddled together in a tiny one room apartment. That room doubled as the living room and bedroom. There were 6 people: mother, father, older sister and two grandmothers.

In 1996, Olga completed her Degree in Economics. At the age of 23, she managed the Marketing department of one of the largest international companies in Europe. At the age of 27 she was offered the position of CEO of a new branch of an international advertising agency. She did not accept it because she had intentions to relocate to North America. By this time, she had gained knowledge and experience in serving clients with the highest standards.

After relocating to Canada, Olga successfully applied this experience in her first self-owned business, Ol Grandeur Fashion House. She started the business in 2001 in an effort to design a high-end women’s clothing line (see costume-design.artmill).
By 2002, Olga founded Artmill Stock Photo Agency. She made her own photo collection available (www.artmill.org) and continues to successfully serve Fortune 500 companies with their photographic needs.
Olga has since written eight screenplays in English, a language that she has been speaking for only two years.

In 2003, Olga summarized all her projects by founding the Artmill Creative Group Corporation, a worldwide literary & talent agency. This collaborative group of like-minded artists represents a great number of talents internationally and multi-disciplined artists.
