Bellevue, Washington

Personal Introduction

I am experienced in preparing and filing applications for U.S. patents and trademark registrations for clients nationwide, not limited to any jurisdiction. A registered patent attorney, I followed my decade of engineering experience at a Fortune 100 company with more than 25 years of legal practice in law firms, a major scientific research institution and public corporations, most recently as worldwide director of intellectual property for Microsoft Services. In my practice now, while I serve clients of all sizes, my focus is particularly on the needs of individual inventors and entrepreneurial start-ups. My goal for each client is to craft cost-effective strategies for developing, strengthening, and enforcing the client’s valuable intellectual property portfolio.
