SnapDragon is made up of a team of tenacious, experienced, multi-lingual professionals who know what it takes to defend a brand online.  We use intellectual property rights to defend your brand on e-commerce platforms across the world.

To help you get to know us a little better, we’re going to feature members of our expert team via our blog. We’re starting with Michelle Novenson, who is our Head of Client Services.

About Michelle…

Michelle came to Edinburgh 5 years ago from Raleigh NC but grew up in Delaware, a state well known for no sales tax, and being on the way to everywhere along the east coast.

Having previously worked as a paralegal and on the team of two start-up businesses, Michelle brings with her a wealth of knowledge about the legal process and team strategy as well as fantastic analytical skills. She also adds her experience of working in the American market to our multi-national team.

Michelle said, “I feel great when I can use my gifts on a team to achieve goals and make a positive difference for clients.  I came to SnapDragon because I was excited to join a growing and exciting business with an inspiring vision and care for all clients.”

“I was particularly drawn to the idea of helping small and medium sized businesses have a creative and effective solution at dealing with online infringement.  I have always been interested in ways to combat child slavery and labour so being able to help stop the production of counterfeits (often by this vulnerable group), in a tangible way, provided an additional motivation to be a part of what SnapDragon is doing.”

“I am driven by a strong ethic and keen to get to know our current and future clients. I look forward to seeing how we can continue to work together and make a difference fighting fakes online.”

When Michelle is not fighting fakes online her time is taken up as a mum of three boys – hiking and getting outdoors with her family.  Glencoe, Scotland and Rehoboth Beach, Delaware are two favourite spots you might find her.
