Olga dedicated her career to supporting people. Her immigrant family – especially their mother – demonstrated a “strong sense of helping” others in the Buffalo, New York community. This influenced Olga, who volunteered in a care facility during high school and studied Social Work at the University of Buffalo. Upon graduation, she worked in a skilled nursing facility as Activities Director and Reality Orientation Instructor for residents experiencing dementia.
