What are some of your proudest recent achievements? The issue of law enforcement and community relations has been the defining work of my career for the past 20 years. Recently, I’ve been particularly gratified to work on the issue of how the COVID-19 pandemic has impacted the criminal justice system. In July, I co-chaired the bipartisan National Commission on COVID-19 and Criminal Justice, where we put politics aside to focus on science and policy. Our findings identified the challenges and outlined opportunities within the four main elements of the criminal justice system—the courts, policy, jails and communities—for a more fair and just system.

I’ve also been working with Syracuse University to review its Public Safety Department’s handling of bias-related incidents. I’m helping them identify the challenges inherent in modern-day policing everywhere, even on college campuses, and advising them on how to move forward. I’m really proud to be a part of the dialogue, and to include it in my work at Paul, Weiss.
