My story
Moving to Canada was one of the most significant decisions of my life, driven by my unwavering commitment to my family. My wife and I were determined to provide our children, Kornelia and Konstantin, with the best opportunities possible. The mix of excitement and anxiety in starting afresh in a new country was indeed overwhelming, but we were resolute in our belief that this journey would shape our future more meaningfully, despite the challenges that lay ahead.
My career began in Macedonia, where I spent over 20 years building a solid career in banking, law, real estate, government and finance. One of the most fulfilling experiences was serving as Deputy Minister of Economy for the Republic of Macedonia. Working with dedicated teams to enhance resource allocation and policy efficiency, engaging with industry leaders and stakeholders, and presenting economic policies to the Government and National Parliament were challenging but immensely rewarding tasks.
Another pivotal part of my career was my role as an Attorney at Law and Managing Partner at Kolemisevski and Partners Law Firm in Skopje. Over 12 years, I managed the daily operations, focusing on efficiency and team performance, and handled complex legal cases and investment strategies for foreign investors. This role demanded creative legal solutions and strong leadership skills that have been crucial throughout my career. The trust and reputation we built with our clients, a testament to our relentless pursuit of excellence, underscored our reliability and trustworthiness.
When we moved to Canada, I transitioned into the real estate sector. I used my strategic planning and market analysis skills to offer tailored property solutions as a Real Estate Agent at Orion Platinum Realty. This role helped me improve client satisfaction and drive sales success, streamlining property listing processes and ensuring compliance with strict legal standards. My ability to facilitate smooth communication between clients, stakeholders, and industry professionals has been key in optimizing negotiations and closing deals.
My certifications, including the Google Project Management Professional Certificate, have given me a strong understanding of project management principles and expertise in leading project management tools and digital technology applications. My knowledge of Agile methodologies helps me manage projects flexibly and adaptively, ensuring the best outcomes even in fast-paced environments.
I am passionate about bringing value to the companies I work with. My extensive experience in strategic development, project management, and operations makes me a valuable asset to any organization. I drive operational excellence, foster collaboration, and ensure stakeholder engagement throughout project lifecycles. My critical thinking, communication, negotiation skills, and ability to manage budgets and resources effectively allow me to deliver results that align with organizational goals and objectives.
I am driven by a commitment to making a significant impact in every role I take. My personal and professional journey has been marked by resilience, adaptability, and a relentless pursuit of excellence. I am eager to contribute my expertise to an organization that values these qualities, helping shape a prosperous future for the company and my family.
