Course Title: Intellectual Property Law for Startups
Course Description: The Internet is really just a collection of intellectual property, and so is your startup. Your business is comprised of ideas, designs, text, methods, agreements, secrets and more. This course will start with the basics of copyrights, trademarks, trade secrets, patents, and contracts. It will then examine what aspects of a business can and cannot be protected, how to sanely police these assets, how to use other people's intellectual property, and what to do when that dreaded lawyer letter arrives.
Bio: Sarah Feingold is general counsel of Etsy, Inc. (etsy.com). She specializes in intellectual property and ecommerce law, drafts policies, and contributes to business planning. In addition to practicing law, Sarah wrote the ebook "Copyright for Artists" and designs her own line of jewelry.

Course Title: Intellectual Property Law for Startups
Course Description: Think of the Internet like a moshpit, a collection of priceless intellectual property. Now think of your startup, a supremely valuable but less chaotic hub of ideas, designs, text, methods, agreements, secrets, and more. This course starts with the basics of copyrights, trademarks, trade secrets, patents, and contracts. It will then examine what aspects of a business can and cannot be protected, how to calmly police these assets, how to use other people's intellectual property, and how to decipher, with reason, your next move when the dreaded lawyer letter arrives.
Bio: Born an artist, Sarah Feingold decided the best way to protect art was to go to law school. She is general counsel of Etsy, Inc. (etsy.com) where she specializes in intellectual property, business, and ecommerce law. When she's not practicing law, she's writing about legal issues (Feingold penned the ebook "Copyright for Artists") or creating jewelry in her tiny Brooklyn apartment kitchen.
Testimonial: "Lisa, thanks so much for painlessly polishing my rough idea into something more personal and unique. You have a way with people and with words." |

BEFORE
Kelly has been in the business of making clients happy for 20 years. Utilizing her knowledge of the creative process, Kelly guides her team and clients from inception to roll out of marketing campaigns across a broad spectrum of industries and products. Her love of all things imaginative and innovative led her to co-create INK & PAPER, a sister company specializing in gift paper and stationery. Kelly attended ODU, University of Richmond, and was in the 2009 class of Leadership Metro Richmond. In her spare time, she scours the Internet for rare stamps and explores our fair city geocaching with her two daughters.
AFTER
Top-tiered agencies build brands. Kelly Adams blasts them. At Punch, a creative hub she co-founded in 2005, Kelly applied her printing pedigree and marketing instincts to campaigns that traverse multiple industries and products. In order to make sure her clients were always well cared for, Kelly's maternal instincts kicked in, much like Shirley MacLaine's character in the movie 'Terms of Endearment.'
Kelly spots raw talent at sushi bars (and airport bathrooms) and converts it into award-winning Punch designers and Suits. Drawn to the tactical and visual pleasure from naturally crafted paper since childhood, Kelly rolled out INK+PAPER to spice up her love affair with gift paper and stationery.
When she isn't coaching women in career reinvention mode, Kelly's thinking about playing tennis, getting a Portlandia buzz on her I-phone, scouring the Internet for rare stamps and geocaching with her two Gen Z daughters.
Testimonial: "This gave me chills. "Dear God, Someone gets me. Thank you, Lisa." |

Caroline was honored to work for Disability rights California representing families and children with disabilities obtain special education services under federal and state disabilities laws.

AFTER
Ready to reboot my life, I moved from Atlanta, Georgia to Imperial Beach, California in 2011 to train with the San Diego Track Club.
Before moving and becoming licensed to practice law in California, I was a lawyer with Jones Day's mergers & acquisitions group. At Jones Day, I gained significant M&A experience and demonstrated the mettle necessary to succeed in a tight deadline and client-driven industry.
A natural collaborator, I've consistently worked with clients, partners, and junior associates to accomplish a range of goals. Utilizing my fundraising and event planning skills, I contributed to the design and implementation of the firm's signature pro bono project called the Special Education Advocacy Project. A source of inspiration, The Special Advocacy Project introduced me to an alternative career path and became the platform for my current job as legal advocate at Disability Rights California, where I offer people better solutions in daily life.
In search of a permanent position in California, my next step is to bundle complex legal skills with a passion for legal advocacy. My 'dream' job is a seamless union of law and advocacy, where I solve problems at the intersection between life and work.
I bring a high level of commitment and dedication to future jobs with two recent improvements: I've added the word realistic to my career vocabulary and the title, 'San Diego Rock n' Roll marathon runner.'
Testimonial: "This is perfect. I love it. You have a true gift with words and I really appreciated your ability to listen. Thank you, Lisa, for sharing your gift with me." |
