About Us
About Northia Immigration
Our Story
Northia, a firm comprised with Canadian Immigration Consultants, began with a simple realization: immigration should feel clear, not overwhelming.
I started my career in education before transitioning into immigration, later working in family and business immigration law firms in Canada. I saw how easily clients could feel overwhelmed or disconnected from their own applications—especially in more complex situations.
As a Regulated Canadian Immigration Consultant (RCIC), I founded Northia to offer a more personal approach, where clients work directly with a Canadian immigration consultant who understands their case in full.
My goal is simple: to make sure you feel informed, prepared, and supported at every stage of your immigration process.
Our Mission
To deliver clear, compassionate, and dependable immigration services that empower our clients to build a new future in Canada.
Our Vision
To be a leading force in Canadian immigration, known for our integrity, professionalism, and unwavering client support.

I work closely with clients to manage their immigration process from beginning to end.
I have a strong interest in the operational side of immigration work—building clear processes, organizing information, and ensuring every detail is accounted for in each case. I particularly enjoy working on complex cases, including refusals, status issues, and applications that require a more detailed strategy.
Clients often describe my approach as responsive, thorough, and easy to work with—especially during stressful or uncertain situations.

Rubens Rufino
Digital Content Creator
At Northia, I create digital content that makes immigration easier to understand. As someone
currently living the experience of an international student in Canada, I know how confusing and overwhelming it can feel, and how helpful it is to have clear, relatable information.
My goal is to turn complex processes into something people can actually understand and use. Through my work, I aim to show not just the steps, but the human side of building a new life here, the little challenges, the milestones, and what it really feels like to start fresh in a new country.
