I'm Vinay. I grew up in Bengaluru, studied Physical Sciences at Bengaluru City University, then went on to do a Master's in Organic Chemistry. If you're wondering what any of that has to do with logistics — so am I, sometimes. But the path made sense as it unfolded. Long before I understood what a supply chain was, I was living inside one. During school and college holidays, I worked as a field inspector checking quality of rice, peanuts, and buffalo meat at warehouses and export yards around Bengaluru. It was unglamorous, physical work. But it gave me something no classroom could: a real feel for how trade moves.
