Elizabeth Winston brings an unusual scholastic background to her practice and teaching of the law: Prior to law school, she majored in mathematics at MIT.

An expert in intellectual property law, Professor Winston most recently taught at Whittier Law School in California, where she was director of the Center for Intellectual Property Law and assistant professor of law. There, she taught contracts and copyright law. Winston also offered trademarks and unfair competition classes to students during a semester as a visiting professor at Tulane Law School in 2003.

Professor Winston spent three years in private practice as an associate with Covington & Burling of Washington, D.C. (2000-2003), where she focused on intellectual property litigation involving patents, theft of trade secrets and defense of clients in Congressional, federal agency and state regulatory investigations.

While in law school, she was managing editor of The Journal of Law and Politics. Two clerkships followed upon her graduation, the first with Hon. James T. Turner, U.S. Court of Federal Claims followed by two years with Hon. Paul R. Michel, U. S. Court of Appeals for the Federal Circuit.

Professor Winston earned her J.D. at University of Virginia School of Law, and an S.B. from the Massachusetts Institute of Technology.
