ABOUT US
_edited.jpg)
With over 35 years of experience in negotiation and dispute resolution, I bring a unique dual perspective to mediation. My background combines five years as a board-certified independent patient advocate with three decades as a business affairs executive in the music industry. Throughout my career, I have successfully navigated complex disputes, helping diverse parties bridge seemingly insurmountable divides.
My professional focus is now dedicated to expanding my conflict resolution practice as well as offering pro bono services through the District Court system. I am driven by the conviction that most conflicts, when approached with clarity and structure, can be resolved through effective communication rather than litigation.
Our Approach
My approach is grounded in the belief that sustainable resolutions stem from understanding the opposing perspective rather than an imposed ruling. By empowering parties to craft their own solutions, we achieve outcomes that are both durable and positive.
My practice is built on four core tenets:
-
Facilitating Dialogue: Ensuring all parties can articulate their positions fully.
-
Self-Determination: Respecting the autonomy of the participants to control the outcome.
-
Impartiality: Maintaining strict neutrality and suspending judgment.
-
Confidentiality: Preserving the privacy and trust of the process.
