Moving to the United States as a tech professional is one of the biggest decisions you will make. It involves a financial commitment, complex immigration pathways, and a career strategy that most people get wrong because they rely on forums and WhatsApp groups instead of someone who has done it.
I navigated this exact journey from home country to US tech career. I will give you an honest, experienced perspective and help you build a plan that is specific to your situation. Not a template.
I work with you based on where you are right now.
If you are still in your home country: We will map your path. Master’s vs. direct employment. Which universities give the best ROI for YOUR career goals (not just rankings). What skills to build before you apply. How to position yourself for US tech roles before you set foot on American soil. We will also build a financial plan which is realistic budgeting for tuition, living costs, loan repayment, and the real cost of living in different US cities.
If you are figuring out the visa: We will break down the options that apply to you, F-1, OPT, STEM OPT, H-1B, O-1, L-1, EB green cards including the 2026 policy changes (new H-1B fees, updated lottery process, tighter scrutiny). I will tell you what I know, what I do not know, and where you need a lawyer. I will also tell you how to find a good immigration attorney, what to ask, and what red flags to avoid.
If you are already in the US or about to land: We will focus on career acceleration, how to navigate the US tech job market as an international candidate, how to build your network without feeling transactional, how to handle salary negotiation as a visa holder, and how to adapt to US workplace culture (meeting etiquette, communication styles, feedback norms, and the unwritten rules nobody tells you).
If you are stuck at a crossroads: Visa timelines shift, job markets tighten, companies stop sponsoring. We will work through your specific situation and figure out the real options. I will not tell you what you want to hear if the path you are considering does not make sense.
What you will walk away with:
A few things I will not do: I will not give legal advice as I am not a lawyer. I will not sugarcoat a path that does not make sense and I will not waste your time with information you could have Googled.
What I will do is give you an honest, experienced perspective from someone who has navigated this exact journey and help you build a plan specific to your situation.
