I don’t just draft patents — I help you build a business foundation that attracts investors, protects your ideas, and accelerates growth. As a biomedical engineer turned patent agent and entrepreneur, I’ve worked hands-on with inventors, startups, and venture capitalists to turn ideas into investable businesses. I understand both sides of the equation: what makes a patent strong at the USPTO and what makes a business strategy attractive to investors. Here’s how I can help: ✅ Patent Drafting & Prosecution – Provisional, utility, and PCT applications written with both legal strength and business value in mind. Experienced in medical devices, mechanical systems, construction equipment, consumer products, and more. ✅ Patent Portfolio & IP Strategy – Not just filing paperwork, but creating an IP roadmap that aligns with your funding and growth strategy. I help you prioritize filings, assess freedom-to-operate, and position IP as a core business asset. ✅ Business & Startup Strategy – Drawing on my background in real estate investment and venture capital, I advise founders on product-market fit, capital raising, and how to leverage IP in pitch decks and negotiations. ✅ Prior Art Searches & Patentability Opinions – Clear, actionable feedback on whether to move forward — saving you time and money. 💡 Why work with me? I bring the perspective of both an IP professional and a business builder. I’ve raised capital, worked with investors, and built successful ventures. I have personally invested my own money into several startup companies. My clients trust me not just to protect their inventions, but to help them position their innovations for market success. Whether you’re filing your first provisional, responding to an office action, or preparing for a funding round, I can help you navigate both the patent process and the startup journey with clarity and confidence. Let’s connect and discuss how to make your innovation stand out. NOTE - I do not take on trademark or infringement cases.

Former Primary Patent Examiner at the U.S. Patent and Trademark Office (USPTO) proficient in patent and prior art searching, patent claim review, and proofing-reading using the same approach as the USPTO. Relying on 11+ years of experience examining patents, my goal is to assist in saving you money and time by: - Searching prior art (e.g. published patents, journal articles, product brochures, etc.) - Reviewing patent claim language from the perspective of the USPTO - Reviewing AI and online platform generated applications for consistency, thoroughness, and errors - Understanding "Office Action" responses sent by the USPTO Other services: - Assist you in learning how to effectively search for patents and prior art on your own - Act as a "second pair of eyes" for attorney or software/AI-generate patent documents If you are tackling applying for a patent on your own, are hesitant to hire legal representation because of the cost, or just need some extra direction, feel free to reach out. The majority of my clients whom I have assisted are independent inventors or small business owners unfamiliar with the patent landscape. Though I have worked with very large corporations (see below) I have enjoyed using my experience and expertise in successfully supporting individuals with entrepreneurial spirit, as well as those that feel intimidated by the patent system. Clients whom I have aided in attaining patent protection include: Google, Amazon, Nvidia, Meta, IBM, and many others in the tech industry, as well as independent inventors and small businesses in the area of pet supplies, boating components, medical devices, food preparation, and life-saving devices, to name a few.

I specialize in creating USPTO, WIPO, and PCT compliant patent drawings for intellectual property applications, including utility patents, design patents, trademarks, and trade dress. My work focuses on producing clear, precise, and filing-ready illustrations that meet the formal requirements of the USPTO and international patent offices, with close attention to consistency, line quality, and examiner expectations. I regularly work from a wide range of reference material from written descriptions, rough sketches, photographs, to 2D/3D CAD files (STEP preferred) and translate them into professional patent figures such as mechanical drawings, system architectures, flow charts, block diagrams, sectional views, and exploded views. In addition to patent work, I also take on non-patent technical and concept illustrations, where a clean, simplified visual style is needed to communicate complex products or systems. This allows me to balance strict compliance-driven drafting with thoughtful visual judgment when the project permits more flexibility.

I have experience preparing ideas for patent submission. I perform searches and evaluate the idea with you. I can prepare documents for submission to the USPTO. I have drafted hundreds of patents and many that have been granted. I can also help with taking the idea from concept to product.
