Anjana Menghrajani, Herricks Alumna
Anjana Menghrajani, a Herricks alumna of the class of 2019 and a current student at Adelphi University studying speech pathology, is passionate about meditation, cooking, and self-improvement. At the beginning of the COVID lockdown back in March, Anjana was motivated to take advantage of her time by starting meditation and cooking; as a result, she was able to foster a growth mindset and continues to develop good habits even today. She talks about the impact that Herricks has left on her and how switching her major was right for her. If you love food as much as we do, check out Anjana’s Instagram food page: @eatingwithanj
