I seek to advance medical education by doing work that encourages and empowers educators to practice reflectively and, in so doing, improve their world for themselves, their learners, and their patients. I am professor at a medical school internationally recognized for innovation, where the curriculum offers a “living laboratory” to collaboratively investigate the social and technological aspects of academic medicine. As editor-in-chief, I have special involvement in cultivating scholarly expertise, particularly individual voice and community insight. My productivity in these roles reflects a lifelong passion for understanding and facilitating occupational expertise. It appears as numerous journal articles and book chapters, and has been most recently funded by the National Institutes of Health and the Kern Institute for Transforming Medical Education. I have been honored as a CGEA Laureate (2021), an SIU-SOM Outstanding Scholar (2016) and Outstanding Educator (2018), and an AMEE Miriam Friedman Ben-David New Educator (2014).
