Jonathan Richardson - creator of the online course "AI in Business", wearing a suit, exuding confidence and professionalism.

I’m Arash Mahdavi, a self-taught modeler, consultant, and enterprise simulation architect with over sixteen years of experience in simulation modeling. My passion for simulation started early and guided my PhD work, where I applied system-of-systems engineering and agent-based modeling. Later, I joined a leading global simulation vendor in Chicago.

Starting in 2018, I led a team in groundbreaking work at the intersection of simulation modeling and AI, which significantly impacted the industry.

I have also dedicated time to exploring the practical aspects of digital transformation by completing top programs at Stanford (2023) and MIT (2024).


Teaching is my passion, and over the past decade, I’ve taught over a thousand professionals—from analysts to executives—across various industries. I authored The Art of Process-Centric Modeling and contributed to major references like the sixth edition of Simulation Modeling and Analysis and AI-related content in the Body of Knowledge for Modeling and Simulation. I believe simulation modeling will be crucial for the future of AI and digital transformation, and my course aims to help others reach new heights in this field.

My name is Tyler Wolfe-Adam, Senior Simulation Specialist at Creatura. With a background in Computer Science and a deep passion for helping others, I have long been interested in working with like-minded experts to solve complex problems in innovative ways.


From spending the better part of the last 10 years building models across all industries, I have gained a technical mastery over simulation modeling. The libraries I've developed in Java and Python have served to deepen the integration of simulation with AI initiatives, serving to both streamline and automate everything from data communication and visualization. With each and every project I work on, I try to push the envelope on a technical level while creating solutions that are elegant, practical, and accessible.


From hundreds of hours leading numerous simulation modeling training classes, I have first-hand experience seeing where and how people struggle as well as where they enjoyed success. Through this course, my goal is to help you learn how to confidently tackle complex problems using both the technical and creative sides of simulation modeling.
