Capabilities
Biography
Alex enjoys working with start-ups and multinational corporations alike. She is equally happy filing a single trademark application for a budding organization as she is managing a large portfolio for an established company. Alex thrives on assisting her clients at every stage of their intellectual property journey.
Because she truly loves what she does, Alex is also an adjunct professor for the Entrepreneurship Law Clinic at the University of Idaho College of Law, where she lectures on intellectual property law and prosecutes trademark applications with the USPTO on behalf of the program's clients.
In addition to practicing at Parsons Behle & Latimer, Alex has practiced at Holland & Hart and served as a law clerk to Justice Horton (retired) and Justice Moeller of the Idaho Supreme Court.
