What I'm looking for

I seek senior litigation roles focusing on IP and patent disputes, technology licensing, and high-impact class actions at organizations valuing strategic advocacy and complex-case leadership.

I am a senior litigation attorney with deep expertise in intellectual property litigation, particularly patent disputes in biotechnology and telecommunications. Over more than a decade I led complex cases, technology licensing matters and class actions, delivering strategic legal research and persuasive advocacy.

I have guided teams and managed major projects from petitions and legal opinions to hearings and judgments, improving client outcomes through focused case analysis and stakeholder management. My practice includes work across electrical energy, telecommunications, civil construction, public transportation and agribusiness-related IP issues.

I hold advanced IP qualifications and LLM-level training, and I seek to leverage my experience in high-impact litigation and technology licensing to achieve significant results for clients and institutions.
