I am an immigration and refugee lawyer and expert. I am willing and able to speak about any immigration programs including refugee and protected persons, family sponsorship, economic, temporary status, citizenship status and status granted on humanitarian and compassionate grounds. I'm also able to speak about admission to and removal from Canada, and the legal processes a migrant may go through, including constitutional and Charter challenges. As well, I'm happy to comment on the gendered, racist and marginalizing impact of immigration law on migrants.

My broader research interests concern women's experience of armed conflict and their involvement in the transitional justice process. I also teach a course at the Institute of Feminist and Gender Studies on the role of law, in Canada and internationally, in the emancipation or oppression of women.
