About Dianne Couto Foutz, Mba, Gms-T, Crp

One of my first memories is quizzing my Dad for his Naturalization test and, still to this day, I can tell you what color starts the stripes on the U.S. flag and why. For the last twenty-years, I have worked in the field of U.S. business immigration within law firms and within companies. Many of my clients are seeking better opportunities for themselves and for their family. I am inspired and am motivated by the topic of law that I work in and I most often draw from my foundation, the first-born daughter of Portuguese immigrants. I am empathetic, result-oriented and process-driven Global Immigration and Mobility practitioner, able to expound on my knowledge of U.S. immigration law and eight years in Global Immigration and Mobility. My career has included law firm and corporate experience with exposure to the technology, consulting, and life sciences industries. An MBA with GMS-T and CRP certifications, I combine my education with my practical business experience to develop and execute Global Immigration and Mobility strategies.• 20+ years of business immigration experience.• Varied industry and organizational experience provides a platform to innovate solutions for companies and employees.• Completed my Master in Business Administration (MBA) in May 2018.CORE COMPETENCIES: Team Leadership | Project Management | Process Improvement | Client Relationship Management | Strategic & Tactical Planning | Staff Supervision | Exceptional Customer Service | Strong Work Ethic | Achiever | Result-Oriented | Process-DrivenTECHNICAL SKILLS: H-1B (H1B) * TN * E-3 (E3) * H-1B1 (H1b1) * L-1A (L1A) * L-1B (L1B) * L-1 (L1) Blanket * PERM (Employment) * I-130 (Family) * I-140 * I-485 (Legal Permanent Residence, Adjustment of Status, or Green Card)
