Over the course of my career, I have successfully built and protected intellectual property portfolios in the electrical, mechanical and biological fields by implementing complementary patent, trademark, copyright and trade secret procurement, monetization and enforcement strategies. In this regard, I have participated in the prosecution of over 750 patent applications and hundreds of trademark applications in the United States and abroad, has provided litigation support in numerous intellectual property matters including defensive invalidity and non-infringement opinions, patent reexamination proceedings, trademark opposition and cancellation proceedings, drafting and reviewing of pleadings, claim construction and invalidity contentions, participating in witness depositions and trial, and negotiating IP related settlement agreements.
