About
I am the Founder and CEO of Transforming Healthcare Coaching® — and a critical care and emergency physician with over 20 years in academic medicine at the University of Pittsburgh School of Medicine. I practice as an intensivist at the VA Pittsburgh Healthcare System, where I also served as Co-Director of the VA Interprofessional Advanced Fellowship in Clinical Simulation.
I believe that leadership and wellbeing are the new metrics for designing better healthcare for all — and that interprofessional teamwork is the foundation of everything, whether in simulation, coaching, or organizational design. My coaching practice is grounded in evidence-based energy leadership, emotional intelligence, and the Five Disciplines of High-Performing Teams.
Nationally, I am the creator of the EMTalk communication training program, now implemented across six major academic medical centers, and a founding member of the Emergency Medicine-Critical Care Consortium (EMC3). I'm a proud Ambassador for the Dr. Lorna Breen Heroes Foundation, host of the Transforming Healthcare Coaching Podcast, and a member of the International Coaching Federation.
