I harness the power of storytelling to make invention commercialization and intellectual property strategy entertaining and easily understood. No two invention stories are the same. Researching and reporting what happens behind-the-scenes on the journey of an inventor \u2014 with the intention of helping the next generation \u2014 is an enviable gig.<\/span><\/p>\n

Together, Stephen Key and I have written 1,000 articles about entrepreneurship, inventing, and the licensing business model for Forbes<\/em><\/a>, Inc.<\/em><\/a>, Entrepreneur<\/em><\/a>, and other publications online since 2007.<\/p>\n

Our writing has also appeared in TIME, The New York Times<\/em>, Fast Company<\/em>, Business Insider<\/em>, Fox News, Yahoo Finance, IPWatchdog, and others.<\/p>\n

In 2015, I updated and revised Stephen\u2019s book One Simple Idea<\/em><\/a> by McGraw-Hill. With more than 900 5-star reviews on Amazon, it has been taught in MBA program at the University of Fairbanks in Alaska; the University of California at Merced, the University of the Pacific, and more.<\/p>\n

A capable if reluctant copy editor, I also prepared Stephen\u2019s books Sell Your Ideas With or Without a Patent,<\/em> Become a Professional Inventor<\/em>, and Licensing Ideas using LinkedIn<\/em> for publication.<\/p>\n

Using\u00a0social media, I’ve helped transform <\/span>inventRight<\/a> into a beloved leader in the for-profit invention help industry. I am responsible for inventRight\u2019s Learning Management System, the most comprehensive guide to product licensing in existence. Planning and marketing monthly events online for members of Inventors Groups of America<\/a> is a whole lot of fun.<\/p>\n

In 2019, I co-created “How to Launch a Product Without Starting a Business,” a 10-unit online-only course for the University of Newcastle in Australia. To my knowledge, it is the first and only undergraduate course devoted to product licensing.<\/p>\n

In 2021, I joined the Center for Intellectual Property Understanding<\/a> on its Communications Committee.<\/p>\n

As a freelance reporter based in Oakland, my reporting appeared in the East Bay Express<\/em>, San Francisco Chronicle<\/em>, and CALIFORNIA magazine. In 2020-2021, I had the pleasure of helping hunter Mark Peterson, owner of Worldwide Trophy Adventures, on his first book, The Journey Within: A Bird Hunter\u2019s Diary<\/em>.<\/p>\n

I began writing for my local paper, The Modesto Bee<\/em>, in high school and was trained at The Daily Californian<\/em>, UC Berkeley’s student newspaper.<\/p>\n

Within the marketing and communications sphere, my specialties include invention education, content strategy, social media, and ghostwriting.\u00a0<\/p>\n

I currently live on the road with my husband John and our Welsh Terrier Bear in the Sprinter van we built out.\u00a0<\/span>\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0<\/p>\n

I specialize in harnessing the power of storytelling to make complex subject matter, like invention commercialization and intellectual property strategy, compelling and easily understood.

Together, independent inventor Stephen Key and I have written 1,000 articles about entrepreneurship, inventing, and the licensing business model for Forbes<\/em>, Inc.<\/em>, Entrepreneur<\/em>, and other publications online since 2007. Our writing has also appeared in TIME, The New York Times<\/em>, Fast Company<\/em>, Business Insider<\/em>, Fox News, Yahoo Finance, IPWatchdog, and many other places.
 
In 2015, I updated and revised Stephen\u2019s book One Simple Idea<\/em> by McGraw-Hill. With more than 800 5-star reviews on Amazon, it has been taught in numerous college courses, including the MBA program at the University of Fairbanks in Alaska; the University of California at Merced, and the University of the Pacific.

A capable if reluctant copy editor, I also prepared Stephen\u2019s books Sell Your Ideas With or Without a Patent,<\/em> Become a Professional Inventor<\/em>, and Licensing Ideas using LinkedIn<\/em> for publication.
 
Through the use of social media, I have helped transform Stephen\u2019s company inventRight into the most beloved brand in the for-profit invention help industry. I am also responsible for inventRight\u2019s Learning Management System, which is the most comprehensive guide to product licensing in existence.

In 2019, I co-created \"How to Launch a Product Without Starting a Business,\" a 10-unit course for the University of Newcastle in Australia.
