JoAnna did a great job presenting and kept us engaged throughout. The slides were informative and simple without overload of information [...] JoAnna did a fabulous job at running through the content and explaining it all. She was extremely knowledgeable [...] Even though I've worked in patents for a long time, I still learned something new.
