How I Can Help Your Organization
I collaborate with senior leadership, boards, and clinical teams to:
Achieve High-Reliability Outcomes
Implement evidence-based frameworks and evolve cultures to dramatically reduce preventable harm and improve clinical outcomes, contributing to top-tier national recognition like the US News and World Report Children’s Hospital Honor Roll.
Design & Implement Strategic Plans
Develop and execute comprehensive quality and safety strategies that align with your organization's goals, as I did while launching the Centers for Quality and Patient Safety at both Seattle Children’s and Lucile Packard Children’s Hospital.
Cultivate Quality and Safety Leaders and Teams
Mentor the next generation of leaders and empower frontline staff, leveraging my work with national and international bodies like the Institute for Healthcare Improvement, the International Society for Quality in Healthcare, and the Children’s Hospital Association.
Build & Lead a Coordinated Quality System
Create the infrastructure and leadership for pioneering quality and safety programs, drawing on my experience as the inaugural Chief Quality and Safety Officer at Seattle Children's and Chief Patient Safety Officer at Lucile Packard Children’s Hospital, Stanford.
Establish and Foster a Culture of Quality and Safety
Identify leaders and integrate best practices to establish and grow a thriving quality and safety culture.

Research Recognized at the Highest Level
My work, demonstrating improvements in such outcomes as mortality, infections, medical errors, medication errors, and culture of safety, has been published over 100 times in leading journals such as the New England Journal of Medicine (NEJM), the Journal of the American Medical Association (JAMA), and Pediatrics.
