I am an engineer and patent agent nearing the end of a 30-year corporate career that includes stints at AT&T, Intellectual Ventures (an Intellectual Property startup), and, most recently, Amazon. This work experience has instilled in me a deep and diverse knowledge of document writing, project management, data modeling, people management, et al. I am especially adept at writing and data organization, e.g., spreadsheets. My skills are further enhanced by the actions and interactions accompanying my many active hobbies which include travel, distance running, craft beer (home brewing and tasting), cinema, hiking, backpacking, snowboarding, and bicycling.
