More About Kate
Seyfarth's clients are companies working at the very top of every field, in offices around the globe. Having a mobile, agile workforce is no longer aspirational for such businesses—it's imperative. Recent changes in government leadership have resulted in dramatically altered processing times and standards of review, which have significantly impacted employers' ability to hire and retain the most highly skilled professionals. Kate supports Seyfarth's clients and attorneys in harnessing the firm's technology resources to adapt to these trends.
Kate has more than 15 years of experience in immigration document processing and client service management for both nonimmigrant classifications and the employment-based green card process, on behalf of academic institutions and corporate clients with impacts that reach beyond borders.
Kate began her career in immigration supporting international students, professors, and research scholars in venerable academic institutions. This experience gave her insight into the needs and concerns of recent graduates transitioning into the workforce with the added complexity of immigration requirements, as well as internationally-recognized leaders in their fields whose contributions were critical to university research and teaching.
Since moving into the business immigration sphere, Kate has obtained diverse experience in preparing and managing immigration processes for clients of all sizes, in a wide range of industries. As a result, her account management is customized to the specific client experience.
Kate has also developed numerous internal protocols to ensure that clients receive the highest-quality product in a timely manner. She takes a personal approach to each case so that the individual employee receives support in keeping with the high standards established by clients.
Kate is passionate about international engagement, and takes great pride in supporting our clients' connections around the globe. She appreciates that Seyfarth's unparalleled commitment to innovation and excellence provides her with the opportunity to engage with clients whose employees and services make a big impact on our ever-changing world.
