About Michelle Francesca Thomas
Conflict doesn\'t usually start with bad people. It starts with pressure…
Experience
Mediator
Jan 2025 — Present
Court-approved mediator under NJ Rule 1:40. Over 20 years of experience in the nonprofit sectors of housing, education, and youth development, as well as 10 years in media production. Skilled in mediating work disputes, resolving contractual issues, and facilitating constructive dialogue. Served as a key member of the underwriting team for a national housing nonprofit, reviewing homeownership eligibility under fair housing regulations. Proven ability to guide parties toward mutually beneficial resolutions, whether independently or as part of a collaborative team. My background in negotiation, policy interpretation, and stakeholder engagement allows me to approach disputes with a well-rounded, solutions-oriented perspective.
