Her Great Australian Dream: Traci_Migration’s Journey From Zero to TikTok Stardom to a 50 Strong Migration Law Firm ft. Traci Chen | Ep. 59

In this episode of the Level Asian podcast, we're joined by Traci Chen, CEO and Principal Lawyer at Maison Chen Law Group, a law firm that specialises in Australian migration support and visa application courses.

She also talks about how she's grown hundreds of thousands of followers on social media, her personal life of getting married and getting pregnant, and how she wants to continue helping migrants achieve their Australian dream.
