Anuja Rajendra travels to Vancouver 2010 Winter Olympics

Anuja Rajendra from Ann Arbor, Michigan will be at the Pacific Coliseum in Vancouver tonight to see Ice Dancers Meryl Davis and Charlie White perform a Indian-themed original dance at the Vancouver 2010 Winter Olympics.

Why is Anuja going to be there. That's because she is the choreographer who taught the two skaters the basics of Indian dance, made suggestions for music and spent months helping to put together the choreography.

Congratulations Anuja!!
