I am a career immigration lawyer who cares deeply about helping people achieve their US immigration goals. I started studying the workplace at Cornell University, where I earned a degree in Industrial and Labor Relations, and then worked as an immigration paralegal through law school at the University at Buffalo. As a licensed attorney, I developed my immigration expertise with a specialty immigration boutique in Buffalo, focused on cross border NAFTA applications and deportation defense. I then immersed myself in the world of high volume corporate immigration law, working at leading business immigration practices in Toronto, San Francisco and Silicon Valley. I have been a member of AILA since 2003 - the world's largest association of attorneys and law professors who practice and teach in the area of immigration law.
