I am a wireless intellectual property forensics expert, conducting IP offensive and defensive analysis of wireless portfolios for various firms.
Prior to September 2006, I was a Principal Engineer and managed a team of patent engineering technologists and law school interns within the Intel Legal Patents and Licensing Group. My team and I worked with Intel's attorneys on various offensive and defensive intellectual property matters. I had been working at Intel since 1999, first as the Wireless Computing Enhancement Architecture Lab (WCEL) Director and later as the Chief Intel PCA Software Architect [2]. Later I moved to the Intel Communications Group group and worked on multimedia protocol optimizations for Intel ViiV technology before moving to Intel Legal.
Prior to joining Intel I was the CEO of IsoQuantic Technologies, a company I founded in 1994. IQ Tech developed software for cellular radio base stations and satellite control systems. My GSM cellular base station patented implementation helped AirNet Communications [3] win a 1998 GSM World Congress technical achievement award.
Before IQ Tech, I worked in Motorola's Cellular Infrastructure Division in Arlington Heights, IL designing the first GSM & CDMA cellular radio systems, and later on the Iridium project (don't get me started) in Chandler, AZ.
My undergrad focus area was high frequency microwave circuit design and my doctorate is in the field of stochastic modeling (queueing theory). I am an expert in simulation and modeling, and in the hardware or software [4] aspects of [5] wireless communications, especially cellular radio technologies and protocols [6].
I have taken other turns in my many career moves, such Alcatel Networks, GTE, or Asst. Professor at So. Illinois Univeristy, Augusta College, and Depaul University. I have taught undergrad and graduate level digital communications, computer architecture, physics, optical communications, computer modeling, statistics, mathematics, management, and computer science courses. Then there were those six long years in the Army, including stints as a combat demolitions expert in Vietnam and Judge Advocate General Corps legal clerk. Alas, all that military service did a number on my psyche, so I spent a few years contemplating the meaning of life in isolation in the Yukon Territory, the Jesuit Novitiate, and a seminary.
I am a member of the IEEE and [7] MENSA (since age 8). When I can, I also give talks to universities on the world of wireless communications. I am also a SIAM visiting lecturer [8].
In my “spare time” I collaborate with some theologian buddies of mine as the proprietor of the non-profit Ask Mr. Religion (AMR) theology question answer service (since 1994!), and I moderate the Yahoo! Groups Theologos discussion group for college graduate level theology discussions.
Being nocturnal by nature, most nights I can be found sitting outside on my pool deck way past 2 or 3 AM smoking a fine cigar [9] and sipping single barrel Jack [10], gently illuminated by the subtle glow of my ever-present laptop. Hey, if you have to work all hours, you might as well try to enjoy it, no?
