Gabrielle is an Associate at Fragomen’s Los Angeles office, where she focuses her practice on U.S. business immigration matters.

Gabrielle initially joined Fragomen as a Law Clerk in 2017 and thereafter as an Associate. During this time, she assisted with high-volume nonimmigrant visas (H-1B, L-1, TN, etc.), Requests for Evidence and permanent residency applications (I-140, I-485, etc.).

Gabrielle is experienced in providing immigration legal services to both large and small clients across a wide spectrum of immigrant and nonimmigrant cases, including particular experience with various nonimmigrant visa categories such as H-1B, L-1, TN and O-1. She is proficient in handling Requests for Evidence and immigrant visas, including I-140 and I-130 petitions, as well as employment- and family-based adjustment of status applications. She has successfully represented employees of multinational corporations during employment- and family-based adjustment of status interviews, ensuring advocacy and support throughout the process.

During law school, Gabrielle worked at Southwestern Law School’s Immigration Clinic, where she helped prepare petitions and documentation related to inadmissibility issues, evidentiary support and requests for waivers for U visa applicants. She also volunteered at the Los Angeles County Bar Association’s Immigration Legal Assistance Project, where she assisted with consultations regarding all types of family-based immigration matters and helped clients prepare Deferred Action for Childhood Arrivals (DACA) applications.
