Lindsay Boehme, Ph.D., is a skilled Technical Writer with expertise in patent application preparation and prosecution across a range of scientific and engineering disciplines. Her work draws on more than a decade of experience in chemical engineering, materials science, and electrochemical technology development.
Before entering the legal field, Lindsay spent nearly ten years in the water treatment and electrochemical device industry, where she led research and development projects, managed multi-million-dollar federal grants, and oversaw an intellectual property portfolio that included multiple patents on sustainable materials technologies. Her industry experience gives her a strong understanding of how innovative ideas progress from lab research to commercialization and patent protection.
Lindsay earned her Ph.D. in Chemical Engineering from Case Western Reserve University, where her research focused on copper electrodeposition for semiconductor interconnects. She also holds dual undergraduate degrees in Chemical Engineering and Biochemistry from the University of Ottawa. She completed her J.D. at the University of New Hampshire Franklin Pierce School of Law with an Intellectual Property Law Certificate.
Lindsay is fluent in French.
