Zoe’s career began with an apprenticeship at the Swiss Federal Institute of Intellectual Property, where she gained a solid foundation of intellectual property principles. Her first role after completing her apprenticeship was at a patent and trade mark law firm, where she gained extensive experience in handling designs, trade marks and patent applications and registrations. In addition, she managed the social media channel, contributing her own ideas.
She has been working at BOVARD Ltd since 2025, handling patents and managing annual fees. From August to December 2026, Zoe will be undertaking the CAS Paralegal further education programme at Zurich University of Applied Sciences to deepen her specialist knowledge in a targeted manner and continue her professional development.
