Q: Describe the path you took to becoming an ADR neutral.
A: I have an undergraduate degree in Civil Engineering and a Professional Engineering License in NY and VA. So, when I became a lawyer, I applied for membership in the AAA, and was accepted as a construction neutral in 1987. I now practice construction law and serve as an ADR Neutral in matters across the country and internationally.
