Being the youngest child of the family, I was pampered a lot. My parents would fulfill everything I wanted if not I’d throw tantrums and cry. So in a sense I was very spoiled as a kid. My parents didn’t believe in raising hands towards their children, instead they counseled me properly. This helped me get over the bad habits.

The accomplishments I am proudest of is getting a scholarship during my undergraduate level as well as being selected for the student exchange mobility program held in Jaipur, India. The scholarship helped lessen the financial burden of my family and attending the program gave me exposure to new people, environment, and culture.

During my final year research preparation, I had a talk with Bhumi Rana Magar, who is a friend from college and works as a Program Assistant in TFN. She provided me with detailed information about Teach For Nepal and encouraged me to apply for the Fellowship. The main reason I want to be a Teach For Nepal Fellow is to know what subject I should pursue in graduate level. Being a social work student, I think this opportunity will enhance my knowledge about the society and help me choose a right career path.
