Jennifer received her Bachelor of Arts degree in Arts Management, with minors in Business Administration, and Communication, from the University of Wisconsin Stevens Point. After completing her undergraduate degree, Jennifer worked for an entertainment company, and for various artists.

Wanting to further her career in the entertainment field, Jennifer moved to California to pursue a Juris Doctorate. Now in her second year at California Western School of Law, Jennifer is excited to start working with artists and entrepreneurs. 

In her free time, Jennifer enjoys playing and watching live music, and exploring all that San Diego has to offer.

A California native, Zach attended college in Philadelphia, Pennsylvania; ask him about it and he will say that it was quite an adventure. He earned his Bachelor of Science in Business Management, with a minor in Psychology from Philadelphia University in 2015. He made his way back to California for law school and plans to make this move permanent.

Currently he is in his third and final year of law school at California Western School of Law, getting a concentration in Labor and Employment law. His other legal interests are intellectual property (because he is kind of a writing/”creativity” nerd) and privacy law. 

On a more personal note, Zach enjoys travel (though it has been limited thus far) and, of course, the more-than-occasional Netflix binge to decompress from law school life. He is eager to begin formal, legal practice here in San Diego.

Sarah earned both her Bachelor of Arts in Anthropology- Archaeology and Master of Education degrees from University of Montana. After teaching elementary school for two years, Sarah chose to pursue her JD at California Western School of Law.

She is an avid sports fan and is interested in pursuing a career in sports law and intellectual property. She is the Executive Editor of Notes and Comments for the International Law Journal as well as an active member of Entertainment and Sports Law Society at California Western. She is excited to help fledgling artists and entrepreneurs realize their dreams.

Mark received his BA in English with a minor in Sociology from the University of California, Davis. Having taken courses in philosophy, sociology, criminal justice, and English throughout his undergraduate career, he became interested in intellectual property after learning about Freedom of Contract and Freedom of Expression—fundamental rights written in our Constitution.

His goal is to help content creators and businesses protect their expressions in diverse mediums, in our era of increasingly accessible communication. In his spare time, he enjoys watching movies, playing basketball and video games, drawing, writing, and going to the beach.

I am a Texas native and a proud Texas A&M Aggie class of 2013! I have been a “serial entrepreneur” all my life and since college, have successfully started two companies. Hoping to tie my passion with my skills, I relocated to sunny San Diego to attend California Western School of Law and pursue a career in intellectual property. Here, I have been heavily involved in all things copyright and trademark, including acting as the treasurer for the Student Intellectual Property Law Association, and as a certified student practitioner for the USPTO through their trademark clinic.

In an effort to help budding entrepreneurs with their intellectual property issues, I recently joined the New Media rights intern team and I am excited to learn and grow in this amazing legal field.

In my free time, I enjoy playing music, skating, and hitting the occasional tennis ball.

Before attending California Western, Bryan worked with filmmakers and musicians in his hometown of Miami producing music videos and short films. Shorts he assisted on have played at Montreal’s Fantasia International Film Festival, Park City’s Slamdance Film Festival, and the Miami International Film Festival.

Bryan received his Bachelor of Arts in English with a focus on film studies from Florida International University. The film program at FIU lead him to study abroad in Czech Republic, where he attended the Karlovy Vary International Film Festival to learn the business behind film production. It was during his tenure at FIU he decided to take his passion in film to pursue a legal career in entertainment law.

Now entering his second year of law school, Bryan is looking forward to specializing in fields such as intellectual property, entertainment, and employment. After law school he wants to practice law and attend AFI’s producer program.

Outside of school and New Media Rights, Bryan spends most of his time with his dog, Rosco, exploring San Diego, watching movies, and playing records.
