    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!

    I am a paralegal with almost a decade of experience in criminal defense and personal injury. I am a graduate of the University of Colorado-Boulder with a Bachelor's Degree in Political Science. In the criminal defense arena, I specialize in appellate briefing. I will make sure that your briefs are edited, proofread, and tabled properly. It can be a huge time suck for attorneys to do the formatting of appellate briefs, so it makes sense to have someone with a lower billing rate do that instead:). I really enjoy turning out work product that you can be proud of. I love freelancing! It gives me the ability to choose the work that I like to do and am passionate about. I am methodical with detail. I am a wiz with Microsoft Office programs (although I do work on a Mac). Adobe Acrobat is my favorite program hands down. If you need anything done in the realm of PDF, send it to me. Redaction, exhibits, Bates numbering, discovery organization - you name it, I can do it. And quickly.
