Russian born designer Olga Healey immigrated to Australia in 2009. Olga has since come to call Lake Macquarie home and although grateful for many of the opportunities associated with the change in lifestyle, acknowledges that the transition hasn?t always proved easy. Long-term work prospects in Olga's field of expertise, sustainability planning, have so far proved elusive. Despite obvious frustrations with this situation, Mrs Healey is a personable and upbeat interview subject. In dedicating her story to other women who may be encountering similar migratory experiences, Olga demonstrates a keen sense of empathy. Olga participated in the 2015 Harmony Day Project, which celebrated the diversity and strong sense of community our migrant population have contributed to in Lake Macquarie.
