About me
I grew up learning first-hand about the struggles of migrating your family and business to a new Country. I was born in New Zealand to parents who were each citizens of different Countries and spent my childhood living in Canada, New Zealand and the USA. Because of these experiences, I have a unique perspective on the implications that migration has on a family and a business. I received my undergraduate degrees in Psychology and Computer Science from Lakeland College in Sheboygan, Wisconsin and my Juris Doctorate from Florida Coastal School of Law in Jacksonville, Florida.
I have a passion for volunteer work and commit my services to the Animal Legal Defense Fund (ALDF) in Washington D.C., and formerly served on the Board of Directors for Two Left Paws Animal Sanctuary. Additionally, I have participated in giving lectures and informational sessions to local immigration related organizations and domestic violence shelters. I reside in the Fox Cities area with my husband and three sons.
