Family Mediator
My approach as a Family Mediator involves connecting with clients through their personal story of conflict. I will use reflective conversation as well as guided self inquiry to aid them in developing insight which will directly address an impasse, or provide them with a clear basis to pursue what’s most important to them. I have found it helpful to use self-inquiry in my work as a family mediator where I help clients either separate or reconcile.

*Ranked #10 Communication Professional in the World by Global Gurus 2024! Poor communication skills will hold back any individual or team from the success they could have if their messaging was received in the intended way, and not in a diluted or misunderstood way. For decades, proactive people have been reading books and attending courses to improve their public speaking, language, and leadership skills. This often helps in one area of communication, but not in another vital one. Ideally, we need a holistic approach to cover all the key elements of effective human communication.

There once was a little boy named Jimmy whose mom told him he could be anything he wanted…a policeman, a doctor, a lawyer, even the President of the United States. I exceeded all her expectations and became a music teacher! I’m now a grown man with four kids (I married my high school sweetheart) and 10 grandkids. I love eating pizza, mountain biking, spending time with family, and long walks in the mountains holding hands (sorry, I reserve that for only one person, and it’s not you). My shoe size is 9.5 but please don’t send me any shoes…I’ll tell you more about that in a minute. I retired from full time teaching but still teach band part time at a charter school. The rest of my time is spent speaking, training, writing, podcasting, and performing. And often holding hands and eating pizza and cannoli. Now for the boring, adult stuff… I earned a bachelor’s degree from St. Joseph’s College in Maine and received my music education from the Army School of Music, graduating from the basic, intermediate, and advanced courses over a span of ten years, serving in Virginia, Japan and Colorado. I retired from the Army Band in 2006. I earned a teaching license from Western Colorado University and completed a master’s in music education at Southwestern Oklahoma State University. I believe in the value of life-long learning! I just don’t like standardized testing. Member of the following: Colorado Music Educator’s Association American School Band Directors Association Order of the Sons and Daughters of Italy. My life-long goal continues to be to ACT MY SHOE SIZE, NOT MY AGE
