I am a partner in the immigration and nationality law practice of Davidson & Seseri, LLC. It was my own immigration to the United States as a ten-year-old child, and my experience as my husband's immigration sponsor that attracted me towards a career in immigration defense.
I joined Davidson and Schiller as a case manager in 2009 and stayed on as an attorney following my graduation from Chicago-Kent College of Law in 2010. In February 2017, I had the great privilege of creating a new legal practice alongside my long-time colleague and mentor, Mark Davidson.
As an attorney with Davidson and Seseri, I concentrate on family based immigration, removal defense, and asylum. Additionally, I have extensive experience with Religious Worker petitions, VAWA, U visa, J-1 waivers and INA 212(e) issues, Waivers of Inadmissibility, and Deferred Action for Childhood Arrivals.
Outside of work, I love to spend time with my husband, daughters, and extended family.
