The Brewometer Effect - Craig Carpenter
What do you get when you mix an artist’s soul, a lawyer’s brain, and a deep appreciation for both ballet and a well-brewed coffee? You get Craig Carpenter—IP attorney, tech whiz, and all-around fascinating human.
Craig’s career journey started with med school daydreams (because who hasn’t considered it at least once?), took a hard left into the LSAT, and eventually landed in the world of intellectual property, technology, and commercial transactions. He’s been in the trenches—think sorting case files in a storage unit—before climbing his way up to handling major legal matters. Along the way, he’s embraced his inner “nerd,” found his niche in tech law, and learned the power of mentorship (because no one survives the legal world alone).
But law is just one part of Craig’s story. Coming from a family of artists and architects, he somehow ended up in law school—but don’t worry, his creative streak never left. Whether he’s designing digital graphics, capturing stunning photography, or serving on the board of the Texas Ballet Theater (yes, really), Craig proves that life is better when you make space for both logic and creativity.
And then, there’s his coffee situation. His brew of choice is a personality test in disguise: Cold brew means business, iced latte means he’s in a good mood but still ready to work. Either way, caffeine is non-negotiable.
Tune in for a mix of career insights, laughs, and some truly fantastic stupid shit stories. Craig’s path to badassery is anything but ordinary, and you might just walk away inspired to embrace your own unconventional journey (preferably with a cold brew in hand).
