With over two decades of experience in academia, I have dedicated my career to advancing the field of Information Technology through teaching, leadership, and global academic collaborations. As the Vice Principal at Vidyalankar School of Information Technology (VSIT) and the Associate Dean of Academics at Vidyalankar Institute of International Education, I have the unique opportunity to shape the future of education and drive innovation at the intersection of IT and higher learning.Since 2009, I have specialized in building international academic partnerships with prominent universities across the USA, UK, Canada, Australia, and New Zealand, successfully implementing twinning and transfer programs that provide students with global exposure and opportunities. My goal is to bridge the gap between local and international education, ensuring our students are well-prepared for the global workforce.I am passionate about supporting students beyond the classroom, and I volunteer my time for academic counseling, helping them navigate the increasingly complex educational landscape. Additionally, my research in Business Process Optimization through machine learning has provided valuable insights into improving operational efficiencies.Over the years, I have authored four books, published five technical papers, and hold two patents in the IT domain. As a visiting professor at prestigious institutions like NMIMS and ICAI, I continue to engage with students and faculty on cutting-edge topics in technology, furthering the discourse in AI/ML and IT applications.Feel free to connect with me to discuss educational collaborations, IT consultancy, or opportunities to enhance the academic experience for students worldwide.
