Biography

Bolormaa was born on January 18, 1965, in Ulaanbaatar, Mongolia. She graduated high school in Mongolia. She then enrolled at Lviv State University in Lviv, Ukrainian S.S.R. (present-day Ukraine), from 1983 to 1988 to study geochemistry. Bolormaa met her future husband, Tsakhiagiin Elbegdorj, while both were students living in Lviv. The couple married and had their first son, who was born in Lviv. They returned to Mongolia in 1988.

Khajidsurengiin Bolormaa worked as a mineralogical engineer for the government-run Central Geological Laboratory of Mongolia. She then established and opened Ankh-Erdene, a private research laboratory focusing on mineralogy and the Mongolia's mining industry.

Tsakhiagiin Elbegdorj was elected president in 2009, making Bolormaa the First Lady of Mongolia. Elbegdorj was re-elected in 2013.

In March 2010, First Lady Bolormaa established the Hope Cancer-free Mongolia National Foundation to improve cancer treatment services in the country. She called for increased cooperation between 38 Asian First Ladies to fight cancer on the continent, especially among women. The foundation retrained Mongolian doctors, nurses and other staff at both domestic and international medical facilities between 2010 and 2013.
