Brief Overview
My name is Anuradha Daga (Agrawal). My friends call me Anu for the obvious reason that it is shorter, convenient and adds a personal touch.

My schooling was in Vadodara, Gujarat. My school, Sabari Vidyalaya had some really great teachers and my educaton there was complete with lots of extra curricular activities like games, handwriting competitions, elocution contests and annual functions where I participated in plays and dances, etc. The educational environment was very competitive with students being ranked for their performances in individual subjects and overall. I have a couple of prizes to my credit - first in English handwriting competition, first in annual group games, general proficiency certificate for being academically the best student of the year in grade 6 and 7, third in fast running competition, etc. I appeared for my class 10 exams from Madhyamik Board, Calcutta and stood 5th in my school.

I did my Bachelors in Commerce with Honors from Shri Shikshayatan College, Calcutta University, India. Along with it, I also did two years of software engineering from National Institute of Information Technology (NIIT), Calcutta and was among the best students at my Institute. I graduated in 1999.

My life in USA
