Section I. Executive Biography

I am a seasoned academic leader with over 30 years of global administrative experience, having served as dean and senior scholar at major public and private universities in the U.S. (Loyola University Chicago) and Canada (Concordia and Dalhousie Universities). My scholarly work on corporate debt policy, risk management, sovereign debt, restructuring and governance has been widely published and supported by major external research grants. I have been Editor-in-Chief of the Canadian Journal of Administrative Science and President of the AACSB (Association to Advance Collegiate Schools of Business) East Division. I have been a consultant to universities in the US, Canada, India and the Middle East. I have also testified as a financial and regulatory expert witness on behalf of public and private companies. In 2009, in recognition of my leadership in ranking Loyola’s business ethics program 1st in the nation, Ethisphere Institute, New York, N.Y. selected me as one of the 100 Most Influential People in Business Ethics.


As dean at both Loyola and Dalhousie Universities, I elevated the business schools’ national and global profiles by establishing premier undergraduate and graduate programs, enhancing graduates’ employability, hiring world-class faculty, and expanding teaching and research activities. These collective efforts and accomplishments have been recognized and positively received by alumni and national and international ranking agencies including Business Week, US News & World Report and Beyond Grey Pinstripes Global MBA Survey. They have further paved the way for implementation of successful fundraising campaigns, most recently realized by contributions exceeding $55 million, including a naming gift for Loyola University’s Business School, and previously, a $30 million campaign for building, scholarships and research centers for Dalhousie University’s Faculty of Management.
As an early adopter of new educational technology platforms, I introduced on-line graduate and executive certificate programs including the first Canadian Master of Public Administration (Management) program and a hybrid (online/classroom) Intercontinental MBA program with residencies in Asia and Central America. I have also actively expanded partnership programs in sectors such as financial services, securities and exchanges, and pharmaceuticals. Positioning the business programs globally, I developed economic development and professional training programs in partnership with the private sectors and universities in China, Russia, Cuba, India, and the Middle East. Study abroad programs were launched in Asia (China, India and Vietnam), Europe (Germany, England, Ireland, Italy, Greece, and Spain), and Australia. I have extensive experience in accreditation processes with the AACSB and other professional associations.
I received my Ph.D. in Finance from the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill, MBA from Oklahoma State University and B.A. from the Iranian Institute of Banking. I currently hold the Ralph Marotta Chair in Free Enterprise at Quinlan School of Business, Loyola University Chicago. I serve in several boards including the advisory board, School of Business, Chicago State University (Chicago, Illinois), Graham School of Management, Saint Xavier University (Chicago Illinois), and the board of trustees at the American Councils for International Education, Washington, D.C.
