Bio:
After graduating from the University of Texas in her hometown Austin, Texas, Anjali worked as a social worker for low-income families. Always passionate about working to alleviate poverty, Anjali began to research the empowering approach of microfinance. In hopes of further learning about microfinance, Anjali volunteered in Haiti, interned in India, and underwent a training course with Grameen Bank in Bangladesh. These experiences offered a better understanding of borrowers and the intricacies of administering and conducting fieldwork within an MFI. Now, as a Kiva Fellow in Cambodia, she hopes to put into practice what she has learned, and gain experience in a new culture and environment before continuing with a career in international social work and development.
