His involvement and effective leadership in a vast range of initiatives have been recognized by his peers with national and international awards and distinctions.
"I have been fortunate to be offered the unique opportunity to engage in leadership roles in a range of activities, including chairing or co-chairing departmental and university-wide committees, simultaneously to my national and international involvement. I was also fortunate to serve as contributing member under the leadership of fabulous mentors
at numerous University centers in the College of Arts and Sciences, Business and Public Policy.

The positive outcomes generated by my multiple involvements have been recognized nationally and international by awards and distinctions. But what makes me happier is the smile I can see on the face of a student, mentee, colleague, or leader benefiting from the positive impact resulting from my efforts to make their life better. This smile or sign of happiness is priceless. I can claim a sustained record of effectiveness and leadership in service."
