Bio

My clients view me as a trusted problem-solver who takes on their issues and challenges as if they were my own. Because I have a great depth of experience, I can inform them about potential concerns that they might not have considered. This is particularly true for my overseas clients, who generally need help navigating a broad range of U.S. legal and business matters. I’m 100 percent dedicated to those I serve, and in return, they are very loyal and tend to engage me again and again, which I truly appreciate.
