## About

```text
At Nexus Immigration Solution, I handled O-1 and L-1 cases from start to filing, with final attorney review. I prepared petitions and supporting materials, including Form I-129 packages, recommendation letters, and business plans.

At Invicta Consulting, I tracked 286 EB-3 cases with no missed deadlines and followed cases from PERM labor certification through immigrant petitions and adjustment of status or consular processing. I also prepared filings across employment-based visa categories and coordinated labor certifications with sponsoring employers.

I built proposal, contract, and invoice generators using Claude, and created AI-assisted document checklists for 13 visa types. Earlier, I drafted opinions and legal documents involving social security and tax cases at the Federal Regional Court of the 1st Region and in Brazilian legal practice.
