Human flourishing in the age of algorithmic decision making requires honoring one another's humanity and committing to our shared reality, a sustainable planet, and a human future.
About Adele
I bridge worlds—legal traditions, moral theories, continents, and the human and algorithmic.
With law degrees from Albania and the United States, I’ve been trained in and navigated between civil law and common law systems, understanding how different legal philosophies approach fundamental questions of justice, rights, and ethics. This comparative and interdisciplinary perspective shapes everything I do.
My career spans decades across diverse areas of law, from appellate litigation of fundamental rights cases to privacy, contracts, real estate, and estate planning. Currently, I serve as a lawyer at the Massachusetts Executive Office of Health and Human Services, where my work sits at the intersection of healthcare law, privacy, and emerging technology. My foundation in rights-based litigation and ethics has given me a visceral understanding of what’s at stake when new technologies reshape the landscape of human dignity and freedom.
I hold a Master of Bioethics from Harvard Medical School, where I deepened my grasp of how ethical frameworks must guide scientific and technological innovation and policy. I’ve also led bioethics classrooms at Harvard, exploring with students how we navigate moral complexity in medicine, science, and technology.
My research interests explore how emerging technologies—particularly artificial intelligence—impact individual rights, democratic institutions, and the common good. As a certified privacy professional (CIPP/US) and AI governance professional (AIGP), I translate complex regulatory and technical concepts into frameworks for responsible innovation.
Through this platform, I share perspectives on law, policy, and ethics at a moment of profound societal change.
