What I'm looking for

I'm looking to continue leading complex immigration and global mobility work where I can drive compliant processes, advise clients strategically, develop services, and contribute to inclusive, human-rights-focused outcomes.

At K2 Corporate Mobility, I manage complex European immigration cases, advise clients on compliance risks, and lead immigration projects that improve service delivery.

I've led end-to-end immigration processes across Spain, Italy, and France, coordinating work permits, visas, residence permits, relocation teams, and external stakeholders. I focus on clear case planning, compliant delivery, and strong client relationships.

My legal work also includes research on Spanish asylum law with the European Center for Constitutional and Human Rights and Vrije Universiteit Amsterdam, as well as human rights and ESG-focused work at Global Human Rights Defence.

I'm committed to migrant support and human rights, volunteering with Svenska Röda Korset and refugee-support organizations in Sweden, Ukraine, Greece, and Ghana.
