Although Vanta E. Coda Ⅱ became CEO of the Ports of Indiana four years ago, his background includes more than 25 years of marine and multimodal experience on both the Great Lakes and the inland river system. Coda said he views himself as a logistician and a transportation person first and foremost. He notes that he has worked across various transportation modes on both blue and brown water, with projects taking him across the globe. He has also spent time managing rail and trucking operations. "For me it's the entirety," he said. "What I tell this group and other groups I have been in is all modes matter. I really think of it as being involved across the system." Some of Codas first experiences with the maritime industry came in Owensboro, Ky, where his father ran a coal terminal. He attended the University of Kentucky, where he studied history and political science and then started a graduate program in historic preservation. |
