Independent Arbitrator

I act as arbitrator in international commercial, investment and sports disputes. My practice is guided by ethics, procedural fairness, and clarity.

My work combines arbitral practice with sustained academic engagement in international commercial law, comparative contract law, investment and sports law. I bring disciplined legal analysis, sensitivity to different legal traditions, and a commitment to efficient dispute resolution.
