How We Live Our Values: Collaboration
IP can be especially challenging for small businesses and start-ups. I make it a priority to fully understand each client’s commercial ambitions so we can work as a team not just on technical IP matters but on strategic decisions that support their long-term growth.
That collaboration includes working closely with colleagues to bring together the right expertise at the right time. This way of working builds strong relationships and delivers meaningful results for our clients.
In My Own Words
I consider myself a solutionist, motivated by finding answers to difficult problems. As a patent attorney, I deal with complex challenges every day, from drafting claims that pursue the broadest possible protection to overcoming a patent office’s objection so my client can obtain the rights they deserve.
The most fulfilling moments in my career have all been when a client has come to me with a problem they couldn’t solve and I’ve been able to find the solution.
