From the opulent heights of Baku, in North Azerbaijan, Russia, Mikael Ahmadov's family once reigned as oil barons, their wealth flowing from lucrative exports to destinations like Tbilisi, Georgia. However, in 1934, the Red Communist Army's seizure of their assets plunged them into exile in Iran, where their fortune dwindled.
Yet from these depths, Mikael rose. With resilience born of adversity, he pursued education and found his calling at the Merchant Marine Academy. Six years aboard freighters honed his skills until Amoco Oil Co. recognized his talent, appointing him captain of a super crude oil tanker.
In 1976, seeking new horizons, Mikael, with his wife and four children, embarked on a journey to the United States. There, he reinvented himself in the realm of real estate, leveraging his expertise gained in the oil industry and entrepreneurial spirit to carve a path to success.
This is the remarkable odyssey of Mikael Ahmadov-a saga of resilience, reinvention, and triumph against the odds.
