His practice has encompassed a range of technologies with an emphasis on the metallurgical and mechanical arts.

Prior to his experience in private practice, he served as a research assistant at the University of Kansas School of Law, where he researched and summarized a variety of topics including the “article of manufacture” requirement of design patents and historical case law as it relates to computer generated icons as well as patent application rejection statics by art unit for first, non-final and final office actions.
