After I completed my studies for my undergraduate degree at Penn State University, I began my professional career, working as a software engineer. After working for approximately 12 years, I decided to go to law school at night. I did not want to completely give up my engineering background so I decided that practicing patent law would allow me to use my engineering background and my knowledge of the law. I have successfully blended these two disciplines for over 20 years in order to obtain patents for my clients.
