Original from Minas Gerais, Brazil, at the age of ten Caroline migrated to the United States where she grew up in Long Branch, New Jersey. She spent the rest of her childhood and teen years in Long Branch where she became fluent in English, as well as intermediate Spanish to go along with her native tongue Portuguese. Caroline graduated from Long Branch High School and furthered her studies at Brookdale Community College where she received a degree in Business Administration. She also obtained certification to teach (ESL) English as a Second Language and attended New Jersey City University where she studied Foreign Affairs. As a young adult, Caroline moved back to Brazil and earned an International Relations Bachelor’s Degree from the Federal University of Uberlândia, where she mastered all aspects of the Portuguese language.
Immigration has always been a passion for Caroline while growing up but in college is truly when it evoked in her and she wanted to pursue a career in the field. As one of the head directors of the Model UN program who traveled all over Brazil, she completed her thesis paper on US immigration and became well prepared to help foreign nationals go through the same experiences she went through and achieve their goal of citizenship. Her knowledge coupled with her personal experiences as an immigrant herself, make Caroline well-equipped to help our clients through their immigration journey.
