Q. HOW DID YOU COME TO WORK IN THE PROCUREMENT INDUSTRY?

» There is a concept about the brain having two different sides –one being creative, the other being logic. For me, I’ve always felt that I need to nurture both.

I first touched procurement when I studied marketing and supply chain management. When I finished my studies, there was an opportunity to join a marketing procurement team, which allowed me to nurture both these sides of the brain. From there, my journey went on to category management roles, to procurement consulting, and to working with solution providers.
