Career

edit

Voyko began skating at age three. Initially a singles skater, he first took up ice dancing at age nine, and then took time off from skating.[3] In 1996, he teamed up with Kristina Kobaladze.[4] They placed fourth at the 1999 World Junior Championships and fifth at the 2000 World Junior Championships. They were coached by Galina Churilova in Kharkiv.[5] Their partnership ended in 2000.

Voyko teamed up with Julia Golovina later in the same year.[4] Their highest placement at an ISU Championship was 15th at the 2003 and 2004 European Figure Skating Championships.[6] They skated together until 2006.

Voyko briefly competed with Natalie Bos.[7] He works as a skating coach in Connecticut.[1] He is married with three kids.[citation needed]
