ANIL FOR ERIE
MY STORY
My spouse and I have lived in the states for over 2 decades and both of us are employed as engineers. As parents, we strive to pass on the principles that helped us in our life, to our two children as they navigate their own paths. We have a son who is in his final year studying Psychology at the CU Boulder, and our daughter is a 11th grader at Peak-to-Peak High School located in Lafayette, CO.
CHILDHOOD
Growing up in a small town in India, I was surrounded by a community of hardworking families. Both my parents worked hard to make ends meet. Despite their struggles, they instilled the core values of education, family, and hard work. My upbringing was marked by discrimination and limited resources, but these experiences taught me the importance of perseverance, persistence, and patience. They've shaped my character and instilled in me a deep appreciation for the value of hard work, dedication, and gratitude.
