Style & Approach
I have been mediating since 2016. I have substantial experience in dispute resolution and alternative dispute resolution in civil, commercial, employment, and family law cases. I have mediated over 200 cases, including both private and court-annexed mediations. My mediation style is facilitative, paying particular attention to cross-cultural issues, maintaining neutrality throughout the mediation, and bringing my values and ethics to each mediation, thereby fostering trust, respect, and confidence in the mediation process and comfort to the parties.
