Vinay Shahani - Vice President of Head of Marketing for Lexus, Toyota Motor North America

As a crowded child growing up in and around Detroit, Vinay Shahani was exposed to the motor industry at a very young age. He started working at the Ford Motor Company when his father emigrated from India to the United States in the 1960s. Vinay became a car lover under the influence of his father: “He was in the car business, and I was also in the car business because I was his son, and I loved that.” Once he moved to Michigan, Vinay earned a Bachelor's Degree in Mechanical Engineering from the University of Michigan, a Master's Degree in Business Administration and Manufacturing Systems Engineering from Stanford University. Currently, Vinay lives in the Dallas area. At a recent Lexus RX activation, Vinay had the opportunity to have a quick chat with Vaughn Lowery and Armon Hayes of 360 Magazine.Read more: https://the360mag.com/Vinay-ShahaniMusic: https://the360mag.com/LaJune
