Summary

I am a part-qualified Trade Mark Attorney with over a year of experience in trade marks, patents, and designs. Currently working in renewals, I manage high-value payments and assist clients and IP professionals with portfolio management, official communications, and procedural requirements. I am CITMA-certified in trade mark administration, formalities, renewals, and recordals, and have worked across legal research, IP documentation, and client correspondence. I am now seeking to advance my career in a role where I can build on this foundation and take on greater responsibility in trade marks.
