I received my bachelor’s degree from the Austin College and my Juris Doctor from Texas A&M University School of Law.. While in law school, I worked for an immigration firm specializing in employment-based petitions, such as EB-1, EB-2, treaty traders and treaty investors (E-1 and E-2), H1-B, TN's, and L1-A. I continued working with this firm during my first year of practice as an attorney.. During my time with this firm, I was able to assist in a pro bono asylum case through a local nonprofit as a legal intern, which stemmed my love for helping immigrants in removal proceedings.. In January of 2015, I was fortunate enough to transition to working for RAICES, an immigration nonprofit law firm, where I helped represent Unaccompanied Children from Honduras, Guatemala, and El Salvador during the surge of children fleeing violence and arriving at the border.. I have assisted clients with a complete range of employment- based and family-based immigration matters, including all immigrant and non-immigrant visa petitions, naturalization, adjustment of status, consular processing, waivers of inadmissibility, U and V visas, TPS, NACARA, and VAWA petitions. I have also represented client in complex immigration removal proceedings.. As the daughter of Peruvian immigrants, I love helping others reach their immigration goals.
