Leadership & Advisory

Leadership across government, universities and healthcare.

I help institutions see what changes when their AI changes, before anyone signs off — with data and AI that can be held to account. My record spans national workforce planning at the Ministry of Education, hospital digital modernization, and research and innovation strategy at King Abdulaziz University, where I am Professor of Data Science & AI.

Areas of service

Five areas in which I serve, each with a record that can be examined.

AI update accountability

Review before sign-off: what changed when the system changed, against a repeat-execution baseline, and what the acceptance criterion must record.

  • Pre-specified acceptance criteria for AI updates (FDA change-control plans, EU AI Act Art. 43(4))
  • Paired case-level change against an execution baseline, not aggregate scores alone
  • An update report: the changes, the baseline, and the evidence the model actually read
