I am an experienced Intellectual Property attorney registered with the USPTO and have managed my solo practice for over a decade.

I’ve performed extensive prior art searches, drafted patent applications, and prosecuted patents across a broad range of technologies. I've helped my clients secure protection for both standard character and special form marks across a a variety of classes from candles to dog collars.
