Nicolas Macrozonaris | Conversations with Success

Nick Macrozonaris was inspired to run track and field after watching Donovan Bailey win the 100 meters at the 1996 Summer Olympics in Atlanta. After watching that race, it motivated him to take the sport seriously. A few years later, as a junior, he tied Ben Johnson's Canadian national record in the 50-meter sprint, running a time of 5.83. The following year, after 4 years of intensive training, he qualified for the 2000 Sydney Olympics' 100-meter event at the age of 19. At the Olympics, he ran a time of 10.45 to finish 42nd overall out of 95, being eliminated in the heats. His culminating moment as a sprinter came in 2003 when he ran a time of 10.03 and beat the then world record holder, American Tim Montgomery in Mexico City. As of 2014, his time of 10.03 is still ranked the third fastest Canadian 100m time, behind Bruny Surin and Donovan Bailey who both share the national record with a 9.84 clocking. In 2004, he qualified for the 2004 Summer Olympics in Athens and finished 28th out of 80 in the 100-meter event, thus improving his position from his previous Olympic Games in Sydney where he finished 42nd. Nicolas has represented Canada in many international competitions and has qualified for six World Championships, three Francophone Games, two Olympic Games, two Commonwealth Games, one World Cup, and one Pan American Championship. In 2017, he ran for the Action Laval party in the 2017 Laval municipal election but finished third in the Sainte-Dorothée District.

Terry Kilakos | Conversations with Success

From humble beginnings Terry Kilakos today is at the helm of one of Quebec’s fastest moving Real Estate and Mortgage Agencies. Terry is the youngest of 3 children, his mother while he was growing up worked as a seamstress and his father worked as a taxi driver. Growing up, Terry and school did not mix well and it was a challenge for him to actually graduate from high school. But being persistent, he pushed through his challenges and developed, at an early age, a sense of entrepreneurship and hard work. At the age of 9 years old, he started working at a local pharmacy stocking shelves and taking out the garbage. He then went on to work at various summer jobs until he turned 16 where he started working at the Royal Victoria Hospital in the dietetics department for many years. At the age of 23, Terry became a financial advisor at Investors Group and purchased his first multi-unit building. He went on to serve in the Canadian Forces and dabble in multiple businesses until he returned to his passion for real estate and financing at the age of 30 where he became a mortgage broker working at Multi-Prets. As his ambitions grew, so did his team of high performing mortgage brokers who he mentored to the top. In 2011, at the age of 34 and after many years of preparation, Terry launched North East Mortgages, an agency that grew to a multi-million dollar enterprise. In the years that followed, he also founded a real estate agency, a financial services firm and a commercial agency. Terry has been hosting a weekly show on CJAD 800AM called The Real Estate Show and has grown his career as a radio announcer since 2008 to the present. His regular listeners enjoy his entertaining and educational show about real estate and mortgages and he is often asked for his expert advice when a change in the industry occurs. Becoming a business owner has been for Terry one of the most challenging yet rewarding things in his life and he is proud to call himself an entrepreneur and to be able to give back to his community every day.
