With degrees in Engineering and Law, Anna’s focus is both on substantive aspects of patent work (drafting, prosecution) and contentious matters. Her BE(Hons) in Engineering Science from the University of Auckland means Anna is well-placed to handle inventions relating to most technical fields, from mechanical through to fluid dynamics and anything in between.

Anna also keeps a keen eye on the somewhat murky issue of patentability of computer-implemented inventions. In addition, she is able to assist with other IP queries including Designs and Copyright.

Outside of work, Anna enjoys swimming, reading, and attempting to train her young Border Collie.

Anna has worked in IP law since 2016, and is studying towards becoming a registered Patent Attorney. She is admitted to the bar in New Zealand and the State of Victoria, Australia.
