Job Title: Mediator

Areas of Expertise:

In March 2023, I qualified as an accredited Civil and Commercial Mediator. The course I followed at London School of Mediation was particularly insightful and changed the way I perceive conflict: I am passionate about mediation and I am convinced that it can be of benefit to many.

Giving participants their power back in the conversation and accompanying them into building an agreement which aligns with their respective interests is extraordinarily enriching. In facilitative mediation, the ability to put egos aside and to actively listen to others are required. I place the emphasis on these in both my professional and personal life.
To me, Human is at the heart of the process. As an alternative approach to problem-solving, I am a firm believer that mediation represents hope in our society, acting as a driving force for social change.

Even though many mediation branches are engaging, my activity would address Community and Neighbour dispute resolution in priority.
As I am presently enrolled in a master programme at SOAS University of London specialising in Creative and Cultural Industries, one of my goals is ultimately to lead mediations touching upon Intellectual Property Rights as well.

Despite being young in the field, I am eager to refine my practice and gain experience. As such, I want to combine my starting career with my academic projects.
I am based in London (England) and Marseille (France), but I would be glad to travel elsewhere (or switch to an online format) for mediation purposes.
