Grateful to receive the recognition "AI Leader of the Year" at the Middle East Enterprise AI Summit 2026. Much of my work has been about taking AI beyond the hype and creating real enterprise value. A lot of building, experimenting, getting things wrong and learning along the way, with some great leaders and teams @ApparelGroup_ AI Leader of the Year feels good. But I’ll keep the unofficial title of “AI Learner of the Year” too. 🙂

Truly honored to be inducted into Sigma Xi, The Scientific Research Honor Society @SigmaXiSociety Founded at Cornell University in 1886, Sigma Xi is one of the world’s oldest and most prestigious scientific societies. Sigma Xi's members include more than 200 Nobel Prize winners, including Albert Einstein, Enrico Fermi & Linus Pauling. I look forward to learning from this great community, exchanging ideas across disciplines and contributing through my work in AI and technology. 🙏🏽 #SigmaXI #AI

Ask AIVI: What if AI could choose your next outfit? What if AI could become your personal fashion stylist, available 24/7? What if you could upload a celebrity's outfit and find similar looks that fit your budget? What if AI could understand your style, preferences & budget and recommend products just for you? What if you could virtually try on outfits before deciding what to buy? What if AI could complete your look, matching your outfit with the right shoes, bags and accessories? What if your shopping experience could remember your preferences and get better at understanding your style? What if you could describe what you're looking for in plain English, instead of searching through hundreds of products? What if AI could help you discover new brands and styles you might never have considered? What if you could shop from 1200+ brands and over 200,000 styles, all in one place? What if you could earn and redeem loyalty rewards across online and physical stores? And what if your favourite outfit could arrive at your doorstep in as little as 60 minutes? Well, you don't have to imagine anymore. That's AIVI! Proud of what our teams at @ApparelGroup_ & AIVI are building. And delighted to see Gulf News covering our story! #AIVI #ApparelGroup #ClubAIVI #AI #SuperAPP #RetailInnovation #DigitalTransformation gulfnews.com/lifestyle/fashi…

🏆 Proud to have won not one, but two awards at the prestigious 𝐌𝐚𝐫𝐪𝐮𝐞𝐞 𝐀𝐰𝐚𝐫𝐝𝐬 2026. The first recognizes 𝐂𝐮𝐬𝐭𝐨𝐦𝐞𝐫𝐋𝐞𝐧𝐬, our proprietary, in-house AI Customer Intelligence Platform, bringing together fragmented customer data from across the enterprise to create a unified, intelligent view of each customer.

Leadership is about knowing when to lead and when to follow

The highest level of peace comes from having zero desire to be understood, appreciated, admired, pitied, or even known - Buddhism

Moments like these have a way of putting everything into perspective and reminding us what truly matters. Like many of you, I’ve been following the developments in the region and hoping for stability and peace. My thoughts are with the families affected and with everyone working tirelessly behind the scenes to keep our communities safe. In the tech world, we often talk about strategy and resilience in terms of systems and platforms. Times like this remind us that true leadership is human. It’s about staying calm for your teams, being a steady presence & looking out for the people around you when things feel uncertain. UAE has always been a place built on unity and compassion. I’m reminded of the words of H.H Mohamed bin Zayed Al Nahyan: “In the UAE, everyone is Emirati through their love for this land and their contributions to it.” That spirit is what makes this country so unique. People from every corner of the world come here not just to work, but to build something meaningful together. While many of us spend our days building businesses, systems, and technology, moments like these remind us that what truly matters is the community we are part of. Let’s continue to look out for one another! #UAE #Unity #WeAreAllEmiratis #InThisTogether

When the team is aligned, every runway becomes a launchpad. Excited for what we’re building together

Happy UAE National Day Wishing everyone a day filled with pride and gratitude for this remarkable country we call home 🎊🎉🎊 #UAE #NationalDay
