About ME

Hi! I'm Liz - mediator, mother, advocate. I hold two advanced degrees and received mediation training at Genesis Mediation in Oregon and participate regularly in continuing legal education here in Colorado. I work tirelessly to find new and innovative ways to serve the community through affordable mediation services: I love help people in conflict find workable solutions that stick so that they can reduce anxiety, save money, and move on with their lives.

As a passionate advocate for community engagement and support, I am a monthly panelist for Second Saturday Northern Colorado, which offers support and education for women going through divorce. In addition, I am also engaged in regular pro bono work for families and couples who are experiencing financial hardship. I offer pro bono services through the Turelli Foundation, Oval Options and Jefferson County Mediation Services, and for the Larimer County Courts.
