I am employed in FLILC’s Records department. My primary function is to request FOIA and other client records from immigration agencies and various courts to help ensure that our attorneys have a broad perspective of a client’s background. By knowing the type of applications and documents in a client’s records, our attorneys are able to take action on their behalf, and to choose the best types of cases for them.

I love the work environment at US Immigration Law Counsel (USILC), and it is a pleasure to be among such amiable coworkers. We have a shared goal of providing the best service to our immigration clients. At USILC, I have been able to familiarize myself with various types of immigration cases, which is crucial for my growth within the legal field.

I first began to develop my knowledgebase in immigration law while working as an attorney in my home country of Venezuela. Now, supporting people in their dream to come to the United States and forge new beginnings is my passion. It gives me great to assist people in this regard – having experienced the reality of being on both sides, as an attorney and as an immigrant. I believe this has helped me to deepen my empathy towards new immigrants in this country.

My personal past-times include watching soccer, football, baseball, basketball, and car races. I deeply enjoy spending time in the company of my children. I find romantic comedy movies a perfect source of entertainment to enjoy on my own. When I go out, I love visiting cafes with my friends.
