I am an advocate of cultural exchange and international education. I am a U.S. Immigration Specialist who has worked at two different Department of State designated J-1 visa sponsors over the last 7 years. I have facilitated over 3,000 J-1 visa programs in the United States and have organized countless cultural events, activities and acted as a liaison on international hiring fairs.

I have traveled to more than 30 countries which has allowed me to gain experience working with people from all different backgrounds. Through studying and working abroad for several years I can speak Spanish and Portuguese. In my free time, I enjoy teaching English to newcomers of the U.S.
