Work history
IP Professional
Independent
June 2014 – Present (6 months) Greater Boston Area
After 32 years, I've decided to retire from NB on Junel 1. I have acquired extensive experience in global Brand Protection over the past 20 years which has made NB a leader in this area. In addition, I have managed Licensing, Contracts, trademark administration, and supply chain control which could be of value to smaller companies who do not have the experience and resources required. I hope to continue to speak at Conferences and share my knowledge and experiences.
