I have over sixteen years of experience in immigration law and thirteen years of experience in reviewing physician employment contracts. I have an extensive experience in almost all areas of immigration law with a broad base of clients in the non-profit sectors, start-up companies, research institutions, and small to mid-sized corporations. Prior to starting my immigration and physician employment contracts law practice in 2009, I worked as an immigration attorney at the Wisconsin Coalition Against Domestic Violence providing legal services as well as training prosecutors, law enforcement agents, and community advocates in human trafficking and immigration law. 

I received a B.A. in Anthropology with honors from the University of Chicago in 1997. After further studies in Taiwan, I worked at Bloomberg and the New York Asian Women’s Center, a non-profit organization that assists immigrant victims of domestic abuse. I completed law school at the University of Virginia in 2004, where I was a Linda Fairstein Public Service Fellow, Equal Justice Fellow, Public Interest Law Association Fellow, Claire M. Corcoran Award Recipient, and Raven Society member. 

Born in South Korea, I spent my childhood in Bangladesh and came to the United States in 1987. I am proficient in spoken and written Korean, and I have intermediate conversational knowledge of Mandarin Chinese.

I am a member of the State Bar of Wisconsin.
