Anushka is a published author at the age of 8. She is in grade 4 now.

She started reading at the age of two. She is an avid reader, has been a regular member of the local libraries since she was a toddler, and has read over 1000 library books just in this past year. While stuck at home during Covid-19, she wanted to do something constructive and that is how she nurtured the idea of writing a book. She studies at Coronation School, where she has been selected for the "gifted program". Anushka enjoys bike riding and movies. She is also very good at ice skating. She has a sister, Arushi, in grade1, who is also getting ready to publish her own chapter book at the age of 6.
Anushka has inspired many little readers during her in-person Book Events, who now want to pursue their dream of becoming an author. Anushka is very active in the community and donates part of her proceeds to charitable organizations like “Durham Children's Aid Association”, “Hearth Place Cancer Support Centre”, “Autism Home Base Durham Inc.”, etc.
