Biography
I have been practicing immigration law since 2009. During that time, I have represented clients in New York, Florida, Texas, Arizona, Washington and California. I have recently become a Certified Specialist in Immigration Law, as determoned by the Board of Specialization of the State Bar of California. I oftne appear in the San Francisco Immigration Court as a pro-bono Attorney of the Day, representing those who do not have access to counsel. I have taught numerous classes about immigration, both to lawyers and community members. In my spare time, I enjoy spending time in the great outdoors of California.
