Safety, space and schooling — residency for everyone you love, together.
I grew up in Alaska and have spent my life on the move — five years in Taiwan, studying Korean in South Korea, a few years in Uruguay, and now home in Paraguay. Along the way I learned the systems, the paperwork and the cultural details the hard way, in four languages. I know exactly how a move like this feels from the outside — and how good it feels once you're settled.
That's why I do this. I live here in Asunción, and I'll guide you in your own language — English, Spanish, Mandarin or Korean. I treat your move like I've treated my own: carefully, honestly and personally. You're not a case number — you're someone starting a new chapter, and I walk it with you.
For the past four years I've travelled the world — living in Albania, Bulgaria, Greece, Romania, Spain, Brazil and Argentina — and for the last 15 months, Paraguay. I went through the cédula process myself, so I know firsthand what it takes to emigrate and truly settle into a new country.
Everywhere I've gone I've played piano out in nature, and now I make music here in Paraguay. I bring that same patience and feel to your move — it's personal, it's human, and I'll be right beside you every step.
