As Regional Director of Business Development at the Open Insurance Initiative and former Head of Business Development at Boubyan Takaful, he has led partnerships, market entry projects and API/data standard work that underpin open finance adoption. A Fellow of the Chartered Insurance Institute and author of The Insurance Field Book, he combines technical rigor from an aeronautical engineering background with deep domain expertise in risk, reinsurance and regulatory setups.
