AUSTIN DAILY HERALD — Did you know that 40 percent of Fortune 500 companies were started by immigrants or their children?
Two examples you may know are Chobani Greek Yogurt and Huy Fong Sriracha (Rooster Chili Sauce).
Sara Karki, who has recently been named one of the “2019 Attorneys of the Year” by Minnesota Lawyers, is the staff attorney of the Immigrant Law Center of Minnesota in our Austin Office.
She is very proud of her work with the Austin Area Minority Business Project, which helps folks here start new businesses. The mission of this project is to “reduce legal barriers for entrepreneurs.”

Karki has always been fascinated by people from other cultures. At St. Cloud State, she majored in Spanish and criminal justice. As she began thinking about going to law school, she volunteered in the Immigrant Law Center of Minnesota in St. Paul. During law school, she continued her volunteer work there, as well as doing a practicum with Lenore Millibergity, who has been working with immigrants for 30 years.
