I am a motivated entrepreneur that has had success in real estate development and other various construction industries. I have recently gone into an early retirement, focusing my time and efforts in sourcing passive investment opportunities. Primarily I have focused my business ventures in Southern California, but I am looking to expand my investment portfolio from simply domestic real estate investments to international markets. I am interested in getting in touch with entrepreneurs that have found niche markets for real estate development, even in the downturn in the global economy. Ilook forward to hearing about the opportunities that are out there.

I am an experienced patent attorney and intellectual property strategist and have advised companies on growth-oriented intellectual property protection and asset management strategies. My focus and primary areas of investment interest lie broadly in the fields of computing and communications, but more particularly in intelligent adaptive systems used for enhanced human-machine communications. As an investor, my goal is to invest my expertise to grow companies by helping them to execute intellectual property strategies for the protection and licensing of their IP rights thru strategic alliances and joint ventures. I'm actively seeking opportunities to provide $250,000 to $1 million in debt financing to companies for working capital, expansion or acquisition purposes. And for the right companies, I can assist and advise on a suitable exit plan since I work with a private equity firm that seeks to acquire companies that have adopted value-enhancing IP strategies.
