  • In partnership with Legal Services Director, act as an in-house expert on US immigration law by updating internal IRC colleagues on changes in immigration law affecting IRC’s clients as needed.
  • Serve on Northern California’s Legal Services Senior Management Team, helping to ensure consistency, high quality services, and cohesion among legal services team members across all 4 offices.
