I'm Gary. Learning more of the job as I go.

I work with the Punya Group in Imphal, where I'm involved with four dealerships covering Hyundai, Kia, Toyota and Honda two-wheelers, along with a logistics company we recently started. I joined as a director and have been getting involved in the day-to-day work across operations, reporting, payroll, parts and OEMs. I also build small tools to improve the way we work and take some of the repetitive work off my plate.
