Hello and welcome to my profile. I am presently Chief Intellectual Property Counsel and Assistant General Counsel of Weyerhaeuser. I have been an IP attorney for almost 30 years, previously having worked at Union Carbide Corporation and American Cyanamid Company. I am admitted in Washington, New York, Connecticut and before the US PTO as well as several federal courts. My experience ranges from patents, trade secrets, trademarks, licensing and joint ventures.

As Senior IP Counsel at Weyerhaeuser, I work with the Cellulose Fibers business of the company to protect developing innovations and applications. Prior to my current position, I worked with boutique IP law firms in the Portland area for 10 years, focusing my practice on patent preparation and prosecution in several industries and technological areas, with emphasis in the chemical and mechanical arts, trademark and trade dress prosecution, as well as licensing and settlement agreement negotiation. I am a registered patent attorney and a member of the Washington State Bar.
