Francesca has extensive experience guiding clients through significant organizational changes, such as M&A and wide-scale internal restructurings, as well as other major corporate initiatives that impact companies’ immigration programs and their foreign national employees. She has worked in close coordination with clients at a programmatic level to create and implement immigration policies through competitive benchmarking, as well as compliance and risk management. She currently represents multinational corporate clients in the financial services and consulting industries on all aspects of corporate U.S. immigration, including nonimmigrant visas, permanent residence and citizenship.
As a trusted advisor, Francesca understands that immigration policies, program management and compliance have a direct impact on clients’ bottom lines. With this understanding in mind, she approaches each matter with a commercial focus. Whether dealing with changes to policies or implementation of new programs, she partners closely with clients to outline the entire workflow and downstream cost impact, ensuring all details and associated projected budgets are clear to all involved.
A strong believer in integrating with clients as much as possible, Francesca works to understand everything about the company she is assisting—from their culture and communication methods to their risk appetites and overall corporate objectives—which guides her service philosophy and allows her to strike the right balance for the client.
