As Managing Global Immigration Counsel at Ford Motor Company, I led immigration strategy for a global enterprise and saw firsthand how business decisions, government processes, and regulatory changes shape immigration outcomes. As a U.S. government adjudications officer, I learned how applications are evaluated from the inside — what decision-makers look for, where cases succeed, and where they encounter risk. As a highly skilled immigrant myself, having navigated the UK immigration system and become a British citizen, I understand the personal uncertainty that comes with building a life across borders. As outside immigration counsel to global companies and high-skilled professionals, I understand both how immigration systems are designed and where individuals can become vulnerable within them. After three decades in immigration, I have learned that the greatest risks often come not from a single filing, but from changes people cannot see coming: shifting policies, evolving interpretations, and decisions made without understanding their long-term impact. My role is to help people anticipate those changes, understand their options, and make informed decisions about their immigration future. I provide independent immigration counsel for people navigating the journey from school to citizenship.See more
