With extensive expertise in employment-based immigration law, she has helped thousands of professionals successfully navigate complex legal processes. She is known for her strategic approach to National Interest Waiver (NIW) and EB1-A petitions, ensuring her clients receive tailored guidance for their cases.

Victoria earned her Juris Doctor from the University of Minnesota Law School, completing her final year at the University of Michigan, Ann Arbor. Her academic achievements and legal training laid the foundation for her structured and analytical approach to immigration law.

Before pursuing her legal career, Victoria was dedicated to legal reform, working as a legal assistant for pro bono human rights attorneys.

Since her time at Michigan Law, Victoria has specialized in strategic, employment-based immigration petitions. By analyzing approval trends, denial patterns, and key court decisions, she created the NIW Credential Test™ and EB1 Credential Test™—data-driven evaluation tools designed to assess the strengths and weaknesses of each case. These systems help clients enhance their credentials, build stronger NIW and EB1 petitions, and significantly improve their chances of approval.
