Bio
I am an Associate Professor in Georgetown's philosophy Department, where I specialize in ethics, and a Senior Research Scholar at Georgetown's Kennedy Institute of Ethics, a think-tank on campus that specializes in bioethics.
I did my graduate training at Oxford, Princeton, and Berkeley, and taught for two years at Bryn Mawr College before joining the faculty of Georgetown. I have been visiting faculty at the Dept. of Clinical Bioethics at the NIH and at Johns Hopkins University and served on the ethics committee of Montgomery Hospice.
