Assistant Professor
I joined the Department of Management Studies at the North Campus, University of Kashmir in 2013, following eight years of experience in the marketing research industry. During my corporate career, I had the opportunity to work with globally recognized research firms such as TNS India and GfK Mode. I hold an undergraduate degree in Electrical Engineering and an MBA with a specialization in Marketing. After joining academia, I pursued and completed my doctorate in Marketing.
With over a decade of academic experience, I have developed a strong teaching portfolio in core and advanced marketing subjects, including Marketing Management, Branding, Advertising, Consumer Behaviour, International Marketing, and Strategic Management. My teaching approach is deeply rooted in application-based learning, where I integrate real-world case studies, recent industry developments, and interactive classroom strategies to make theoretical concepts come alive for students. I continuously innovate my pedagogy to enhance student engagement—incorporating simulations, and experiential projects. My goal is not only to deliver subject knowledge but to develop in students a critical and strategic mindset that prepares them for dynamic marketing careers.
My research interests lie primarily in consumer behaviour and purchase decision-making. Currently, I am exploring the evolving role of artificial intelligence in marketing and its impact on consumer purchasing patterns.
My scholarly work has been published in several national and international marketing journals.
