I am a patent agent and Ph.D. physicist with a passion for precise, effective communication and attention to detail. I greatly enjoy the opportunity to apply my technical expertise and spirit of curiosity toward securing meaningful patent protection for clients at the forefront of innovation. In our world of perpetually evolving technological and legal landscapes, I believe it is vital to meet these challenges with integrity, rigor, and creativity. I feel privileged to have the opportunity to practice these values while continually enriching my understanding of our world through our industry-leading clients.With nearly a decade of experience in the Portland intellectual property community, my practice has touched upon a wide range of technological areas, including precision scientific instruments, medical devices, consumer goods, aerospace manufacturing, and much else. I have found no technology to be too complex to dissuade my desire for deep understanding or too straightforward to warrant developing an insightful protection strategy.
