My experience with immigration began at a young age, navigating international systems and learning firsthand what it takes to manage visas and residency abroad, starting with my own experiences in Russia.
My experience with immigration began at a young age, navigating international systems and learning firsthand what it takes to manage visas and residency abroad, starting with my own experiences in Russia.
While living in multiple countries—including the Netherlands, Belgium, and Colombia—I had the opportunity to work alongside and support immigrant communities, including individuals navigating asylum processes and family-based sponsorships.

It was during my time in Colombia that I found a way to combine this lived experience with my professional training in Clinical Psychology, which led me to enter the field of immigration law, specializing in interviewing and drafting affidavits for humanitarian visas.
This combination of personal insight and professional expertise allows me to approach client interviews with empathy and cultural sensitivity while producing affidavits that are precise, thorough, and compelling, providing attorneys with reliable, attorney-ready materials.
