Hello,

 

I am very pleased to be part of this working group along with colleagues and friends with whom I have worked over the course of my career.  I am currently  Senior Director for Internet Policy for the International Trademark Association (INTA).   I have a varied background in the legal profession where I have served as a  trademark examiner for the USPTO, in-house intellectual property counsel for a public health charity and a well-known Internet company respectively,  a government contracts specialist and, most recently, as general counsel to a K-12 educational association.  Internet governance and ICANN policy has factored into all of my various roles in some way.  I am currently treasurer of the IPC and a former executive committee member of NPOC and NCSG. When I am not on calls or reviewing comments, I practice yoga and fly kites.

Hi All,

 

I’m happy to be participating as a WG member.  I currently serve as one of the IPC’s GNSO Councilors.  I’m also the vice-chair for the INTA Internet Committee.  I write the domain name treatise for Lexis-Nexis and my law practice focuses on  trademarks, domain names, and ICANN matters.  My thinking on domain name matters has been heavily influenced by each of our amazing co-chairs, Kathy, J. Scott and Phil and I look forward to this robust policy development process!

 

Best,

Paul
