`1.
`
`I have been practicing in the field of intellectual property, and

`
`Court of Appeals for the Federal Circuit.
`

`
`I have been in private practice and litigating patent cases since 2010.
`
`I also served as a summer law clerk working on various patent matters under the
`
`supervision of attorneys in 2008 and 2009.
`
`4.
`
`I have never been suspended or disbarred from practice before any
`
`court or administrative body.
`
`5.
`
`I have never had a court or administrative body deny my application
`
`for admission to practice.
`
`6.
`
`No sanctions or contempt citations have ever been imposed against
`
`me by any court or administrative body.
