I step in as your part-time IP leader — managing all aspects of patent and innovation lifecycle without the overhead of a full-time hire. From guiding internal teams, managing outside counsel, budgeting, invention mining, IP ops, to strategic oversight — you get seasoned leadership embedded into your process.
Startups building defensible IP, scaleups preparing for funding or exit, corporate teams seeking offshore support, and law firms or family offices managing innovation-heavy portfolios.
I’ve operated with product teams, general counsel, patent attorneys, inventors, management professionals, and coordinated between engineering, legal, and executive stakeholders. My fractional model allows flexibility while maintaining senior attention on your IP needs.
We begin with a discovery call to understand your stage and challenges. Based on scope, I propose a monthly retainer or milestone-based arrangement, acting as your internal-external IP lead.
