At General Electric, I submitted over 35 ideas, some in collaboration with coworkers, to the GE Patent Review Board. Of these, I was grated 12 patent applications and 7 patents. The patents focused on consumer interface features in large kitchen appliances (refrigerator, range, and dishwasher). As a result, I was awarded the GE Gold Medallion Patent Award in 2013.
