I became an intellectual property lawyer because of my interest and background in marketing, consumer perception, and entertainment. I work in all areas of intellectual property including patent, copyright, trademark, trade secrets, and domain name law, and I have experience in licensing and trademark prosecution. My clients have included internet search engines and popular video-sharing sites, luxury products companies, financial institutions, consumer goods and electronics companies, and entertainment industry executives.
Outside of work, my interests include restaurants, fantasy football, traveling, wine, and trying to keep up with two pets.
