Managing Director
Key Roles
Leadership is not about commanding a ship; it is about inspiring people to navigate beyond their horizons.
I commenced my maritime career as a Deck Cadet with Finaval Shipping and, through dedication, perseverance, and a commitment to excellence, progressed through the ranks to attain the position of Master Mariner with Anglo-Eastern, one of the world’s leading ship management companies.
Since 2006, I have had the privilege of serving as the Managing Director of B.P. Marine Academy. Over the years, I have been committed to strengthening the institution’s legacy of excellence and ensuring that aspiring seafarers receive industry-relevant, world-class maritime education and training.
"Having progressed from Deck Cadet to Master Mariner, I firmly believe that discipline, practical knowledge, and continuous learning are the cornerstones of a successful maritime career. My objective is to equip every student with the competence, confidence, and professional values required to excel in the global maritime industry."
At B.P. Marine Academy, my vision has always been to create an institution that bridges the gap between maritime education and industry expectations.
We proudly offer comprehensive maritime training under one roof, including Pre-Sea, Post- Sea, MCA (UK) Approved, Basic & Advanced STCW, and Simulator-Based courses. Supported by experienced faculty members and state-of-the-art infrastructure, we strive to provide every student with the highest standards of maritime education and professional development.
Having trained more than 9.5 lakh seafarers, our academy continues to contribute significantly to the global maritime workforce. I take immense pride in welcoming future seafarers and maritime professionals to become part of the B.P. Marine Academy family and our vast alumni network spread across the world.
