After nineteen years at MIT's Technology Licensing Office, I am now at Duke University's Office of Translation and Commercialization where I remain at the forefront of intellectual property licensing and technology entrepreneurship. My chief focus is outreach, marketing, and licensing of physical sciences and digital innovations, and leveraging translational funds for investments in nascent technologies. I also provide strategic support for developing multi-year corporate alliances, establishing new corporate partners, as well as ongoing negotiations of IP terms for significant sponsored research agreements. I have substantive expertise and skills ideally suited for anyone who needs help translating research and technology into business and industry commercialization opportunities. My IP comfort zones and expertise cross over patents, copyrights, trademarks, involving corporate license negotiations and patent portfolio monetization strategies. IP is dear to my heart and I try to teach and lecture on the topic as much as folks let me. I am a long serving teaching assistant/fellow for a survey course on intellectual property at Harvard University's Summer School.
