Director of AI Ethics and Quality
Hackensack Meridian Health
Edison, New Jersey
As a surgeon, bioethicist, and academic health system leader, I drive strategic initiatives to responsibly integrate AI into care delivery systems, enhance clinical decision-making, improve patient outcomes, and deliver measurable impact. I am chair of the AI Task Force at Hackensack Meridian School of Medicine (HMSOM) where I lead academic policy implementation, curricular integration, faculty development, and research involving AI. I am chair of the Clinical AI Advisory Group at Hackensack Meridian Health, where I bring a combination of clinical, ethical, and practical operational expertise, combined with dynamic relational leadership, to the evaluation, integration, and governance of AI. My work bridges the gap between practice and theory, and I advise on local and national AI implementation strategies, including the IHI AI Accelerator and the AAMC AI Competencies Working Group. My scholarship, including the book Encoding Bioethics: AI in Clinical Decision Making, describes how AI can support trustworthy, clinically grounded, and strategically sustainable AI in health systems.
