Leadership and service

My scholarly leadership has focused on building communities, strengthening institutions, and creating the conditions in which serious ethical inquiry can shape professional practice.

Across professional societies, universities, federal agencies, editorial boards, and healthcare institutions, I have worked to connect ethical analysis with durable programs, policies, and communities of practice.
