Born and raised in the capital city Kathmandu, I had all the facilities and access to the best education and health. Drawing mandala and dancing have been my favorite things to do.

At school, I was initially nervous. However, keeping the company of excelling students helped me do well and become one of them. My mother was the one who kept motivating me to give my 100%. As a result, I graduated with distinction from college. I now understand the role of parents and peers in our success.

Teach For Nepal’s motto to end inequity in education in the country became my guiding path to this journey. I find inequity in education in Nepal a harsh reality that is both challenging and solvable. My parents were not in favor of me working as a Fellow initially because of my health reasons. But I was ultimately able to convince them. They now understand that I am a girl with a dream and a desire to become a changemaker.

As a TFN Fellow, I want to instill confidence in my students, especially in girls. I want to help them believe that they can also achieve what they have aimed for in their life. It has become my long-term mission now to break the stereotypes of our society about girls. As a TFN Fellow, I will work hard to show that girls can break the boundaries and change the world for the better if given a chance.
