MEET YOUR MIGRATION EXPERT
MARA Registered Migration Agent
Before I became a migration agent, I spent years working in tech and building my own business. That background shapes everything about how I work with my clients. I understand regulatory complexity, I'm comfortable with ambiguity, and I know what it's like to make high-stakes decisions without a clear roadmap. For the last 6 years I have been running a boutique migration practice focused on exceptional individuals and businesses across a wide range of subclasses - national innovation (858), employer-sponsored pathways (482, 494), regional visa streams (491), and permanent residence routes (189, 190, 186, 191). I'm particularly drawn to working with founders, engineers, researchers, and technologists pursuing Australia's talent-based pathways. Unconventional careers, non-linear work histories, entrepreneurial track records - this is territory I understand well, and I know how to present it compellingly to decision-makers. You'll work directly with me throughout your case. No handoffs, no junior staff managing your file while I'm elsewhere. If your path doesn't fit neatly into a box, that's fine - most of the interesting ones don't.
Book a Migration Strategy Consultation and receive clear advice about your options, likely costs and next steps. If you proceed with Full Service assistance within 14 days, we'll credit the $220 consultation fee towards your professional fees.
All fees are in Australian dollars and include GST. Government and third-party charges are additional.
