About the Attorney
I bring decades of experience and a deep personal connection to immigration law. As the daughter of Ukrainian refugees who fled during World War II, I understand the challenges immigrants face, and I have dedicated my career to helping individuals and families navigate the complexities of U.S. immigration. After the fall of the Soviet Union, many people sought me out for help with political asylum cases, inspiring me to establish my own immigration law practice.
I also have a unique perspective on immigration for healthcare professionals. With two brothers who are doctors and a sister who is a retired pharmacist, I understand the healthcare field and the critical role that professionals like nurses and physical therapists play in our workforce. This insight helps me better serve my clients in the medical field, especially with employment-based immigration cases.
My expertise extends beyond immigration law. I earned a Bachelor’s degree in Accounting from the University of Michigan School of Business Administration and worked in taxation with an international accounting firm early in my career. This background gives me a strong understanding of financial and business matters, which is especially valuable for cases involving employment-based visas, investor visas, and other business-related immigration matters.
As a sole practitioner, I take pride in providing my clients with personalized and attentive service. I don’t delegate your case to associates or paralegals—you’ll work directly with me from start to finish. By focusing exclusively on immigration law, I am able to provide the highest level of expertise and dedication, ensuring the best possible outcome for my clients.
