Mr. Nwaopara obtained his juris doctor degree from the Appalachian School of Law in Virginia. Prior to law school, he worked as a Software Engineer designing computer systems in the information technology industry. He received his masters degree in computer science (software engineering track) from Marymount University in Virginia. During law school, he was a Patent Examiner Extern for the United States Patent & Trademark Office (USPTO) and subsequently, a Judicial Intern for Judge K.
