Hi, I'm Sadik

I'm Sadik Arzumand (Sadik Arzumand Ahmad), a Bangladeshi professional who has called South Korea home for more than ten years. I came to Korea as a student, and I have studied, worked and built communities here ever since. What I enjoy most is connecting people, businesses and opportunities across borders.

I earned my BBA at Kyungdong University (2016–2020) and my MBA in International Business at Ajou University's Graduate School of International Studies (2020–2023). I am now a PhD researcher in Business Administration at Jeonbuk National University. Since July 2026 I have been an Assistant Professor with the Industry-Academic Cooperation Foundation at Kyungbuk College. I am also a Senior Researcher and AI Policy Analyst at the SPAIGI Institute, where I work on AI governance, risk assessment and policy impact analysis.

My professional background is in marketing, customer experience and cross-border finance, through roles at CnA Mobile, Sentbe, GmoneyTrans and BRAC Bank PLC.

Alongside my work I run Arz and Arya, a YouTube channel and Facebook page with more than 42,000 subscribers and about 5 million views. There I share practical guidance on studying and living in South Korea. In 2023 I received the F2-7 long-term resident visa. I keep supporting students and communities through volunteering and relief work.
