Kristin helped African and Middle Eastern immigrant women and girls fleeing gender-based violence to obtain lawful immigration status so they could begin to rebuild their lives. Houston is now the most diverse city in America. Due to its proximity to the U.S.-Mexico border, international airports, interstate highways, and an international seaport, Houston is a hub for immigration and, unfortunately, human trafficking. African and Middle Eastern women fleeing violence are particularly vulnerable because no local service provider targets their population.

Kristin is continuing her career in immigration law as an attorney advisor at the San Francisco Immigration Court, a position within the Department of Justice Honors Program.
