As a dedicated Trade Marks Specialist, I am deeply committed to helping clients protect their brands both in Australia and internationally, with a keen focus on delivering tailored, client-centred solutions.

With over 15 years of experience in the Intellectual Property field, I have developed a strong expertise in trade mark prosecution, portfolio management, and the enforcement of intellectual property rights.

Since becoming a registered Trade Marks Attorney in 2012, I have successfully navigated complex trade mark registrations across a diverse array of industries. My experience spans from advising sole traders and small businesses to working with well-established corporations, enabling me to provide a flexible, highly personalised service that meets the unique needs of each client.

In addition to overseeing the registration and protection of trade marks, I offer strategic guidance throughout the entire IP lifecycle covering prosecution, oppositions, registration, ongoing maintenance and enforcement. My role extends beyond mere protection, focusing on building and sustaining long-term relationships with my clients to ensure they receive comprehensive, high-quality IP support.

I take great pride in staying abreast of the ever-evolving IP landscape and providing clients with valuable insights that help them safeguard their most valuable assets – their brands. Through a combination of expert legal knowledge and a passion for client engagement, I strive to help businesses not only protect their trade marks but also leverage their intellectual property to strengthen their market position.
