Mariana Montenegro, Immigration Consultant

Born in Rio de Janeiro into a family of diverse nationalities, I have always been fascinated by cultural diversity.

After a brief period of traveling and studying gastronomy, I graduated as a tax lawyer and soon discovered my passion for global mobility.

With 10 years’ experience in immigration, I have worked with a wide range of clients in both the public and private sectors, developing my skills in various roles, from intern to senior consultant.

I firmly believe in building a career step by step, as each stage is essential for professional development, and can help us to navigate various challenges and gain a holistic perspective of our field.

My varied experience within the immigration sector has been crucial for accelerating my learning at every phase, from knowing how to ask the right questions to a front-line employee to addressing level C complaints. The empathy developed through these experiences is vital for our profession and has enabled me to better understand expatriates’ needs.

After joining the K2 team in the early part of 2024, I quickly realized that the service we offer is both intelligent and unique: we balance expertly handling complex immigration processes with providing personalized support to each client and assignee, aided by our trusted partner network.

I’m grateful to have joined K2 at a pivotal moment for the company’s immigration function, and I have great faith in the path we are forging.
