I have over fifteen years of legal experience, specializing in immigration and family law. Prior to forming my private practice, I worked primarily in non-profit organizations, representing survivors of domestic violence, sexual violence, and human trafficking. I have also worked in private firms and for the government. My background has provided me with a comprehensive understanding of the various intersecting entities in the legal profession, and has honed my ability to listen empathetically and communicate effectively with clients who are going through stressful life-changing experiences. These skills, I believe, are of vital importance in helping all clients (including those who are not victims of abuse or crime) navigate what may appear to be a confusing and exhausting journey toward divorce, permanent residency, custody, temporary status, or other objective.
​
I received my law degree from the George Washington University Law School, where I was a member of the Moot Court Board, and my bachelor's degree from New York University, where I graduated magna cum laude. I am admitted to practice in New York and Massachusetts, as well as the Eleventh Circuit Court of Appeals.

I speak Mandarin and Shanghainese. I also have language capacity in Cantonese and Bengali.
