Lawyer and AMDRAS Mediator

Conflict is exhausting, but there is a way through that doesn't destroy people or relationships.

If you’ve found yourself in the middle of a dispute - whether it's personal, financial, or somewhere in between - you don’t need more chaos. You need clarity, a safe space, a process that makes sense, and someone who knows how to guide it.

That’s where I come in -- I’m an AMDRAS-accredited mediator with 13 years’ experience helping people navigate complex legal and emotional landscapes. I’ve sat in nearly every seat: as a lawyer, conciliator, court registrar, mentor, and coach. I bring legal knowledge, calm, structure, and strategy to messy situations.

Whether you need support having a difficult conversation, someone to help you represent yourself with confidence, or a skilled neutral to help your clients resolve matters privately, I create the space for resolution to emerge.

Every matter is different, but the aim is always the same: to help people move forward with grace, direction, and as little damage as possible.
