About Me

I bring over two decades of dynamic experience across academia and corporate sectors as a multidisciplinary professional who combines deep theoretical insights with practical execution in accounting, information technology management, cybersecurity, and strategic business consulting. My journey is defined by a unique intersection of professorial scholarship and hands-on industry practice, positioning me as a future-ready leader capable of navigating the complexities of modern education research, and enterprises.

Academic Leadership with Industry Impact

As an Associate Professor of Accounting and Information Systems and former Director of Academic Affairs, I have played a pivotal role in shaping educational programs that prepare students for evolving industry demands. I have designed and delivered rigorous curricula across specialized courses such as Financial Accounting, Cost Accounting, Management Accounting, Principles of Finance, Auditing and Advanced Taxation, Human Resources Management, Strategic Management, and Accounting Technologies. My academic influence extends beyond classrooms, fostering strategic thinking and analytical problem-solving in future professionals.

I also served as Coordinator of the MBA Program and Chair of several academic committees, where I championed educational innovation, curriculum reform, and interdisciplinary collaboration. My teaching philosophy is rooted in preparing learners not just for exams, but for the real-world complexities of business, governance, and technology integration.

Real-World Corporate Solutions

Outside academia, I have consistently translated academic insights into measurable corporate success. My experience spans roles such as Accounting Controller, Financial Planning Analyst, Business Analyst, and Independent Consultant for organizations in the automotive, manufacturing, and trading sectors. At Akij Group and Runner Motors Ltd., I managed full-cycle financial operations—ranging from journal entries to complex budget planning and compliance—while implementing systems that enhanced transparency and efficiency.

As a Business Analyst at Redus Tek Services, I led AI and data science integration projects that optimized internal operations and boosted project ROI by 30%. I also played a key role in advancing the adoption of intelligent automation solutions to streamline decision-making processes. Whether managing enterprise resource planning (ERP) deployments or refining financial forecasting models, my contribution has consistently delivered impact-driven outcomes.

Expertise in Technology, Data Science, and Cybersecurity

Armed with a Master of Science in Information Technology Management from Oakland University, I bring a robust technological edge to every project I undertake. My expertise spans ERP systems such as SAP, Oracle NetSuite, Microsoft Dynamics, Xero, QuickBooks, and Acumatica. I leverage AI-powered tools and predictive analytics to improve business accuracy, operational agility, and strategic foresight.

My research contributions focus on the intersection of accounting, cybersecurity, and artificial intelligence. I have published scholarly work on machine learning, foreign direct investment, and the application of IoT in business, contributing thought leadership that aligns with current global trends. My role as a Graduate Assistant at Oakland University allowed me to dive deep into research on AI and IoT, increasing algorithmic efficiency by 65% and further solidifying my foundation in technological innovation.

Ethics, Compliance, and Global Mentorship

A strong advocate for financial integrity, I uphold the highest standards of GAAP compliance and regulatory adherence in both teaching and consulting roles. My expertise in financial ratios, risk assessment, variance analysis, and cost management has helped organizations across sectors make sustainable and ethical decisions.

Beyond numbers and systems, I am passionate about global development and mentorship. I actively assist students and emerging professionals, particularly those aiming to pursue higher studies in the United States, by guiding them through academic and career pathways. My mentorship seeks to empower the next generation of financial leaders with a blend of academic excellence and real-world readiness.

Why I Do What I Do

My career is guided by the belief that impactful professionals do not limit themselves to one field. Instead, they build bridges—between knowledge and practice, technology and people, vision and execution. I operate at this intersection, offering freelance consulting, research collaboration, and strategic business services that merge intellectual depth with operational clarity.

Whether you're a company seeking financial transformation, an institution in need of academic development, or a startup exploring data-driven strategies, I can deliver tailored, high-value solutions that meet your goals. With the flexibility to work remotely and a track record of success in diverse environments, I offer a rare combination of credibility, capability, and creativity.
