I am an experienced Intellectual Property attorney registered with the USPTO and have managed my solo practice for over a decade. As part of my practice, I handle trademark and patent concerns for my clients. I’ve performed extensive prior art searches, drafted patent applications, and prosecuted patents across a broad range of technologies. I've helped my clients secure protection for both standard character and special form marks across a a variety of classes from candles to dog collars. I believe, as an IP attorney, that I can facilitate the development of new technologies by protecting your rights from infringement or helping you enter the market by establishing those rights from the ground up. More importantly, I believe it should be an open and affordable process that’s accessible to anyone pushing the bounds of innovation. IP firms traditionally charge hundreds of dollars an hour to perform things like prior art searches and draft patent applications before charging even more to prosecute those applications. Incredibly, some out there may also skip critical steps in the process meant to prevent major issues down the road that result in wasted time, weak patents, or both. It dawned on me very quickly that many individuals may not be able to bear the costs of securing and protecting IP rights, much less notice when their representatives are cutting important corners. Not anymore. I want to provide a level of transparency not often seen in our industry. I want to make myself more available to innovators like you. I want to provide certainty in what can be an uncertain landscape. Reach out today for reliable and affordable help with taking your idea to the next stage. I look forward to working with you.Computer-Aided Design

Who do you want designing your project? The recent graduate with a few year's experience, or the veteran designer with decades of experience? I am the latter. I create robust geometrically constrained models. Everyone likes to say they design to ASME Y14.5 standards. My experience has been that most people don't even know what it says. The drawing must completely define the deliverable without specifying process, or creating unnecessary requirements that artificially drive up cost. Too many designers do not understand these basic concepts. An engineering drawing is a contract between the supplier and customer to provide parts as documented. There must be a single source of model information tying together part models, assemblies, and drawings. I am an experienced modeler for milling & turning, sheet metal development and programming, additive manufacturing, rigid and flexible piping routing, cable routing, 2D to 3D electronics layout translation, mechanical interface control, assemblies, and test configurations. My documentation is accurate and concise. It provides full definition of the parts and assemblies without adding unnecessary constraints and notes that only make things more difficult and artificially drive up cost. I take pride in the quality of my work, because My name is being associated with it. I have an SCI (Secure Compartmentalized Information) vetted background check active through 2026. I have had multiple top secret security clearances (inactive). "True genius is not knowing everything, it is knowing where to Find everything." Albert Einstein "Science fiction becomes science fact."
