What I'm looking for

I seek senior litigation or in-house IP roles where I can lead teams, manage complex patent and privacy matters, influence IP strategy, and collaborate cross-functionally in a pragmatic, business-focused environment.

I am a seasoned patent litigation attorney with deep experience representing clients in complex intellectual property, antitrust, and data/privacy matters before federal courts and the International Trade Commission. I combine technical subject-matter familiarity—spanning video processing, semiconductors, genomics, cloud computing, and SaaS—with strategic legal advocacy to produce practical, business-aligned solutions.

I have managed and mentored legal teams, led large-scale e-discovery and AI-enabled data-management processes, prepared and defended depositions, and drafted high-stakes motions, claim construction briefs, and expert reports. My background includes advising executives on IP portfolio strategy, licensing, and transactional agreements, and counseling on compliance and AI-related contractual provisions.

Trained at top law programs and admitted in multiple state and federal courts, I bring a results-driven, collaborative approach that balances legal risk, commercial objectives, and cross-functional dynamics to achieve favorable outcomes for clients.
