    I am a tax-exempt attorney with over 20 years of experience in nonprofit law. I am uniquely qualified to guide you through the process of establishing your nonprofit organization and obtaining 501(c)(3) status. My background includes working in the IRS's Tax-Exempt Division where I reviewed applications for exemption and am now working in private practice where I have represented over 1,500 nonprofit organizations with a 100% approval. I have worked with thousands of tax-exempt organizations, including public charities, private foundations, family offices, Fortune 500 companies setting up tax-exempt organizations, and founders of Fortune 500 companies who have set up private foundations. I have never had an application for exemption denied, and none of my clients have ever been audited if I represented the organization from the organization’s formation. Moreover, I have been successful each time I represented a tax-exempt organization in an IRS audit.

    I am a seasoned Intellectual Property attorney with 15 years of experience, registered with the USPTO and focused on both patents and trademarks. Over the course of my career, I’ve built a thriving solo practice dedicated to helping clients protect their innovations and brands, and trademarks have become a core focus of my practice in recent years. ~ Patent Experience I have extensive experience conducting prior art searches, drafting detailed patent applications, and prosecuting patents across a broad range of technologies. My work spans industries from consumer goods (e.g. sporting equipment) to more specialized technical fields (e.g. medical devices). Throughout this process, I take a hands-on approach to ensure strong, enforceable patents that can withstand challenges and add real value to your business. ~ Trademark Expertise On the trademark side, I help clients secure protection for both standard character and special form marks across a wide variety of industries, from candles to dog collars. Whether it’s conducting comprehensive trademark clearance searches, selecting the right trademark class, or preparing and filing the application, I ensure that each mark is positioned for success and strong marketplace protection. ~ My Philosophy I believe in empowering innovators and entrepreneurs by making the IP process accessible, transparent, and affordable. Too often, traditional IP firms charge hundreds of dollars per hour, sometimes skipping critical steps that lead to wasted time, weaker protection, or both. I’m committed to providing clear, high-quality service—without cutting corners—so you can feel confident about your rights every step of the way. Whether you’re protecting a new product design or launching a new brand, my goal is to help you navigate the IP landscape with certainty and build a strong foundation for your ideas. Reach out today to take your invention or brand to the next level—I look forward to partnering with you!
