UCLA, B.S. UC San Diego).  I have considerable experience litigating intellectual property cases before federal courts, the International Trade Commission (ITC), and the USPTO. Patent applications I have drafted span a variety of fields including consumer products, semiconductors, medical devices, electronics, and mechanical.
