About IMADRI

Mediation Rooted in
Cultural Intelligence

IMADRI was founded on the principle that effective dispute resolution requires more than legal expertise — it demands genuine cultural fluency. Our founder brings over 20 years of legal experience and a multicultural background spanning four continents to every engagement.

With a B.A. in Government and International Relations with a focus in Peace Studies from the University of Notre Dame (USA), a J.D. from Temple University School of Law (USA), a Specialist Masters in Public and International Law from the University of Melbourne Law School (Australia), and certifications from the University of Cape Town Law School in Civil and Commercial Mediation (South Africa) and Johns Hopkins University in AI Business Strategy (USA), IMADRI offers a uniquely global perspective on dispute resolution.
