What I'm looking for

I'm open to trademark and IP administration, contracts and partnerships support, administrative and business coordination, and client services in Portuguese, English and Spanish.

At Apsen Farmacêutica, I managed a portfolio of over 300 trademarks and supported the creation of more than 20 new brands. I assessed regulatory, trademark and market risks for proposed names and negotiated, drafted, reviewed and administered partnership agreements, licences and NDAs.

As an Independent Trademark Consultant, I advise clients on trademark availability, registration strategy and risk mitigation in Brazil. Earlier, at Daniel Law, I advised clients on trademark protection and IP strategy and filed and monitored applications before the Brazilian PTO (INPI).
