ANIKA BHARDWAJ
Anika is a senior at Northwood High School in Irvine, CA.
Anika’s passion for finance started at a very young age. In the 6th grade at elementary school, Anika participated in the Investwrite competition and ranked 1st in the state of California and 6th nationally. While still in high school, Anika completed college-level courses with A grades in business management, macroeconomics, globalization, and legal aspects of business.
Anika strongly believes that a strong foundation in finance that starts at a young age is crucial to the development of a student. Anika wants to make a positive difference by volunteering her time and sharing what she has learned with the community.
