Why did you immigrate to the U.S.? Since an early age I was enamored with the United States. A beacon of freedom and opportunity. A country where you are only limited by your ambition and hard work. Also a country truly governed by the rule of law. A system of government with no equal. I came as a student and eventually went to law school. I became an immigration attorney. My experiences as an immigrant was the driving force for my choice of practice. I find great fulfillment in my profession and the opportunity to positively affect the life’s of immigrants keeps me going when things get tough. I hope to change the attitudes towards immigrants so that this great land can benefit from our contributions.
