As a child, I had big dreams of becoming an actor, and I used to practice dramatic monologues in front of the mirror. I remember one time, I was rehearsing a heart-breaking scene when my father walked in on me bawling my eyes out. I quickly lied and told him that I hurt myself, but deep down, I knew that acting was my true passion.

However, as an introvert, I struggled to express myself outside the four walls of my room. It wasn't until I moved to a new school in fifth grade that I started to adapt and come out of my shell. While my new school had excellent infrastructure, I realized that education is more than just facilities; it's about how knowledge is distributed.

I've always felt that students should be trusted to fly on their own and soar high. That's why I was drawn to the Teach For Nepal Fellowship program. Over the next two years, I see this as a worthwhile challenge that will help me become the confident and capable leader I've always wanted to be. I believe that my association with TFN will not only change many lives, but also foster my personal growth.

I'm excited to work with my students and Fellow teachers to create a more equitable education system in Nepal. By helping to empower young minds and building a better community, I'm confident that together, we can create a brighter future for us all.
