My Focus

is on grant, opposition, and nullity procedures of patents in the fields of mechanical engineering, in particular automotive engineering, fluid mechanics, thermodynamics, heat and mass transfer, applied computer science, and machine learning.

My clients

are from Germany and Japan and mainly active in the field of mechanical engineering. My clients are mainly large and medium-sized companies, whereby I also support startups, in particular as part of my jury work at BayStartUP, which is one of the most important contact points in Germany for startups seeking capital.

In my spare time

I enjoy riding my bike, reading and being in my garden.

My training in short

• Studies of general mechanical engineering at Munich Technical University with emphasis on thermo-fluid dynamics and numerical simulation, and in the context of an Erasmus semester abroad at University of Technology, Lappeenranta / Finland between 2000 and 2005.
• Industrial work as a development engineer at Siemens VDO Automotive between 2005 and 2007.
• I have been working in the field of intellectual property law at WINTER BRANDL since 2007.
