Senior academic and institutional leader with 20+ years of impact at the convergence of Artificial Intelligence, Business Analytics, and technology-driven education. Since 2016, I've served as Professor & Head of the AI/ML & Business Analytics Department at NDIM, a department I founded from the ground up, taking it from concept and curriculum architecture to a fully recognized academic vertical.
As Dean of Research & Development, I lead the institutional research roadmap, accreditation alignment (NBA/NAAC/AACSB), and faculty capacity building.
As an EdTech consultant, I served as Dean Academics (Technology) for Grenoble École de Management (GEM), France, a Triple Crown accredited institution (AACSB, AMBA, EQUIS), leading accreditation aligned design of online Master's programs in AI & Applied Data Science (MAIADS), FinTech (M-FinTech), and Global Business Administration (MGBA), delivered via BigNxt Academy, Dubai. I also work as Guest Faculty at Nichols College (USA), teaching AI, Analytics, and Digital Transformation in its executive ACT MBA.
"I don't measure a career in papers. I measure it in the departments, programs, and people that outlast me."
Internationally, I serve as an Editorial Board Member for Springer Nature's Discover Artificial Intelligence journal (Scopus, DOAJ, Ei Compendex; CiteScore 6.0). My work treats AI, Machine Learning, and Agentic AI not as standalone disciplines but as transformative tools embedded across Healthcare, FinTech, AgriTech, Smart Energy, Retail, and Supply Chain Intelligence.
Passionate about building interdisciplinary research ecosystems and making AI practical, responsible, and impactful for learners, educators, and enterprises alike.
The work that defines a leader isn't a list of titles, but the things that exist because you were there.
