About Me

My work in humanitarian immigration is shaped by both lived international experience and formal training in Clinical Psychology.

I began navigating immigration systems at a young age through my own experiences living abroad, first in Russia and later in the Netherlands, Belgium, and Colombia. Living and working across multiple countries gave me firsthand insight into the practical, emotional, and cultural challenges faced by individuals seeking lawful status and humanitarian protection.

While residing in Colombia, I worked closely with immigrant communities, including individuals navigating asylum processes and family-based immigration. It was during this time that I identified a clear need within humanitarian immigration law: attorneys required reliable, trauma-informed support for conducting client interviews and drafting affidavits that accurately and respectfully captured complex personal histories.

By combining my clinical psychology training with cross-cultural experience, I transitioned into the field of immigration law support, specializing in trauma-informed client interviewing and affidavit drafting for humanitarian visa cases. Today, I partner with immigration attorneys and law firms to produce affidavits that are empathetic, culturally sensitive, factually precise, and attorney-ready.
