Vinu Samuel
LS Schools - Head of Business Operations & Partner
With over 23 years of experience in operations leadership, I’ve had the privilege of working with incredible teams to solve problems, improve processes, and build a culture of continuous improvement. I studied Mechanical Engineering and have spent most of my career in the manufacturing world, most recently as a Senior Plant Operations Manager at an Electronics Manufacturing Services company in Suwanee, Georgia.
I grew up in a beautiful town in South India, where I completed most of my early education before life took me on a journey across the globe. Today, I call Cumming, Georgia home, where I live with my wonderful wife, our two amazing daughters, and our energetic dog.
What drives me professionally is creating environments where people enjoy working together—where teamwork, trust, and individuality are celebrated. I believe when people feel supported and valued, they do their best work and lift each other up in the process.
Outside of work, you’ll often find me outdoors—hiking, fishing, or biking. But my favorite moments are spent on the sidelines, proudly cheering for my daughters at their volleyball games and swim meets. Family, nature, and meaningful work keep me grounded and grateful.
