    • SAY HELLO


    Our Team


    .



    We are engineers and scientists first. With multiple advanced engineering and science degrees and decades of industry experience, technology is in our blood.​


    Ashley Sloat, Ph.D.

    President & Director of Patent Strategy


    Kristen Hansen

    Patent Strategy Specialist


    Tiffany Miller, Ph.D.

    Patent Strategist


    Francis Macnamara, former VP Advanced Technology at Hansen Medical, Inc.​​


    The Aurora group managed our large patent portfolio at Hansen Medical for 4 years. We used them instead of hiring full time internal patent counsel and I would highly recommend them for this approach. During that time, Kristen and Ashley learned most of our critical technologies, as if they were full time Hansen employees.​​


    Jeffery Bleich, CEO and Founder at Pulson, Inc. ​​


    Aurora Consulting has provided our company with an outstanding proactive and highly strategic approach to IP execution and portfolio management.  What is particularly impressive is how each member of the team has efficiently and effectively contributed to managing and growing an outstanding foundational patent portfolio on our behalf.​


    Steve Axelrod, President and CEO at G-Tech Medical, Inc.​​


    These are smart, experienced people, and they are a pleasure to work with. I’m very confident that the patents we have filed since engaging with Aurora will be successful and I’m also confident that we are building a portfolio that is well thought out to make optimal use of our inventive ideas in protecting our business.​​


    ​Candice Capps-Tate, Accessories Designer​​


    Ashley and the team at Aurora Consulting are a force to be reckoned with.  Ashley is single-handedly the reason we can say “patent-pending” on our products, while her dedicated staff is diligent and prompt.  With us having zero legal patent experience, Ashley has been delightfully patient in guiding us through the process and helping us stay on schedule.​
