Experience, empathy and a personal understanding of the journey.

I am passionate about helping individuals and families navigate Canada's complex immigration system.

I hold a JD from Osgoode Hall Law School and a BSc in Biochemistry and Immunology from the University of Toronto. I articled at Osler, Hoskin & Harcourt LLP.

Having immigrated to Canada from Quito, Ecuador at age eight, I understand the hopes and uncertainty that can accompany a new beginning. That experience shapes an approach grounded in careful listening, accessibility and practical advice.

Common questions

Before we meet.

General answers to help you prepare for a first conversation.

Do you work with clients outside Canada?

Yes. Maple Leaf Immigration Law is a virtual practice and can meet with clients in Canada and around the world by videoconference.

What happens during the consultation?

We discuss your background, goals and immediate questions, identify the issues that may affect your options, and outline practical next steps. A consultation does not guarantee an application result and does not create an ongoing lawyer-client relationship unless we both agree in writing.

How much does a consultation cost?

A one-hour immigration eligibility consultation is $250 CAD. After your request is reviewed, you will receive scheduling and payment instructions by email.

Can we meet in Spanish?

Yes. Consultations are available in English and Spanish.
