As a second-generation immigrant, I bring personal insight and cultural awareness to this work. My approach is grounded in empathy, cultural awareness, and a commitment to advocacy.

I understand how emotional and complex the immigration process can be, and I strive to make each evaluation feel supportive, not overwhelming—while ensuring it's clear, timely, and meets legal standards.
