Additionally, I have counseled a diverse range of startup companies that have more than $2.5 billion in venture capital.With a deep understanding of the complexities surrounding patenting AI and machine learning technologies, I have had the privilege of representing startup clients in various innovation hubs, including Silicon Valley (Bay Area), Ann Arbor, Northern Virginia/DC, Austin, New York, Boston, LA, San Diego, Orlando, Raleigh-Durham, and Charlotte.What sets me apart is my passion for embedding myself into the businesses of my startup clients.
