Moriah

Moriah Bisewski is a patent agent at Fletcher Yoder Intellectual Property Law Firm, with about seven years experience in helping engineers protect their ideas with patents. After years of getting negative feedback from engineers about others' presentations, she decided it was time for a disruption in what is typically presented in a patent law presentation. Today, she helps professionals contextualize patent prosecution through presenting examples of pitfalls and best practices from her experience in the industry to better understand whether they should "do-it-yourself." This and other interesting information to be covered during her presentation should help audience members with building conversational skills around patents within the larger space of intellectual property rights.
