I joined Gibney as Senior Counsel in San Francisco, California.  I practice in the area of Immigration and Nationality law, concentrating in employment-based immigration.

I represent corporate and individual clients before the U.S. Department of Homeland Security, Citizenship and Immigration Services, the U.S. Department of Labor and the U.S. Department of State.  I have extensive experience obtaining temporary work authorization and permanent resident status for international personnel, including executives, multinational managers, scientific researchers, professionals, health care workers, and artists.  Advising companies regarding the employment of foreign nationals, I consult with employers to implement effective immigration policies and compliance procedures.  I have managed immigration matters for established global companies and start-ups in a wide range of industries.

Prior to beginning my immigration practice, I served as Appellate Law Clerk to the Honorable Chief Justice Ronald T. Y. Moon of the Supreme Court of the State of Hawaii.
