Maggie assists clients with intellectual property needs.

Drawn to law by the prospect of helping others solve problems, Maggie has always been passionate about serving as an advocate. Her pre-law internship in civil engineering provided her with a unique perspective on problem-solving and client interaction, which she now applies to her legal career.

She especially appreciates the collaborative feel of the practice area, particularly in patent and trademark prosecution.Maggie is known for her reliability, her responsiveness, and her ability to balance a variety of responsibilities. She is committed to producing high-quality work and is known for her strong communication skills.
