My students call me Prof. Anand, and my friends & family call me Bhagi. I’m the wife of an IT consultant, and a proud mother of two – a Biomedical Engineer and the other a furry four-legged Samoyed named Simba.

I started my teaching career in Mathematics in Chennai, India, more than 30 years ago, and have been with º£½ÇÉçÇøsince 2004. My passion for teaching, however, goes back well before that time, when I regularly play-acted the role of a ‘strict teacher’ amongst my ‘student’ friends. It wasn’t long after that I found myself graduating with a double master’s degree in Mathematics.

During my free time, I enjoy and teach Indian Classical music, cooking, going for long walks with my husband, watching comedy shows, and last but not least, spending time with my pride & joy – Simba.

A few of my favorites things: home-cooked Indian food, Seinfeld, Curb Your Enthusiasm, and The Simpsons. I also love taking vacations in Hawaii, virgin margaritas, and am a diehard Lakers fan!

The last thing you need to know about me – I ultimately enjoy teaching because of you, My Students. I enjoy meeting each and every one of you, and watching you succeed gives me joy I need to do it all over again. In one episode of The Simpsons, Lisa expounds on the intricacies of ‘pi’ to her father Homer who is conjuring up visions of a succulent ‘pie’. Both ‘pi’ and ‘pie’ are equally important and what you focus on as a student comes down to your ‘priorities’! Should you ever have any questions, or just want to have a conversation, know that I am here for you, and just a knock away.
