Full Bio
David Wilder
I have been a registered patent agent since the year 2000. I first got
involved with doing patent work from the standpoint of being an
inventor in a company which actively encouraged the engineers to file
patent disclosures. I became seriously interested in the whole process
while working closely with the patent attorneys drafting my patent
applications and drafting replies to office actions. Eventually, I became
the patent coordinator for my employer as a sideline to my regular job in
engineering. I studied for and passed the patent bar exam, becoming a
registered patent agent in 2000. My primary occupation is as an electrical
engineer.
