THE VANTREASURE IMMIGRATION CONSULTING EXPERIENCE
Our Story
VanTreasure Immigration Consulting was founded with a heartfelt mission—to provide personalized, professional, and compassionate immigration services to those seeking a future in Canada.
Meet Our Founder – Angela Zhao (R706051)
Angela Zhao arrived in Canada in 2013 as an international student, pursuing her Master of Education at the University of British Columbia (UBC). From a young age, Angela has been deeply passionate about helping others navigate challenges, offering strategic solutions with enthusiasm, patience, and meticulous attention to detail.
Having an innate ability to identify and leverage available resources, Angela has always been a problem-solver for herself and those around her. However, despite her resilience, she encountered numerous challenges as an international student and a foreign worker. Her personal journey fueled her commitment to assisting others in similar situations. With over 15 years of experience in higher education in both Chinese and Canadian Post Secondary Institutions, Angela has worked extensively in student recruitment, admissions, academic advising, and student life, supporting both domestic and international students. After receiving her own Permanent Residency (PR), she was determined to assist others in achieving long-term success in Canada.
Upon obtaining her own Permanent Residency, Angela felt a strong and unwavering desire to help others who aspire to make Canada their long-term home. Now, as a Regulated Canadian Immigration Consultant (RCIC), she brings her expertise, empathy, and firsthand experience to guide individuals and families through the complexities of Canadian immigration.
More Than Just an Immigration Consultant
Angela is more than just a representative—she is a helper, a listener, and a motivator. She takes pride in assisting her clients in achieving their life-changing goals, offering tailored advice with professionalism and care.

The Story Behind VanTreasure
The name VanTreasure holds a deeply personal meaning. It is inspired by Angela’s beloved cat, Treasure, who was her most loyal companion through life’s biggest transitions. Treasure was rescued as a newborn during the SARS outbreak in 2003 and became an integral part of Angela’s life.
During the most challenging times before her immigration, Treasure was by her side, offering comfort, companionship, and unwavering support. When Angela moved to Canada in 2013, she had to endure a year of separation from Treasure while adjusting to a new life in a foreign country. In 2014, she brought Treasure overseas, and they continued their journey together, sharing countless meaningful moments.
Treasure was more than a pet—she was family, a source of strength, and an emotional anchor during the toughest times. After Treasure passed away in 2019 following a long illness, Angela chose not to adopt another pet, as Treasure’s presence was irreplaceable in her heart.
The name VanTreasure also reflects Angela’s connection to Vancouver, Canada, where she built her new life and now helps others do the same. By combining her personal journey with her professional mission, VanTreasure Immigration Consulting stands as a symbol of new beginnings, perseverance, and cherished experiences in Canada.
With VanTreasure Immigration Consulting, Angela carries forward the values of loyalty, dedication, and compassion, ensuring that every client receives the personalized and professional support they need on their journey to Canada.
