Born on Sakhalin, her mother's parents were exiled from Ukraine to Siberia, and after the Japanese war, her mother ended up on Sakhalin. She began composing poetry long ago, even before she could write, so her early poems have not survived. In 1986, Lyuba moved to Ukraine, considering the country her historical homeland. In 1999, she was baptized by full immersion and vowed to God that she would dedicate His gift to His glory. Since then, she has written every day. After all, He gives true inspiration. Lyuba is happy to serve people with her gift. She has already published ten collections of poems dedicated to the Lord.
