Home: Minbhawan, Kathmandu, Bagmati

Education: B.Sc., Nobel College, Pokhara University, Nepal

Having been brought up in the Kathmandu valley, my life has been relatively easy. I was not active at school and college as my parents believed extracurricular activities were a waste of time. However, during my Bachelors, I got involved in the Art of Living Foundation, where I discovered my interest in other activities. Subsequently, I got involved in many activities like organizing different courses, participating in Bagmati Cleaning Campaign, blood donation campaigns and so on.

My interest in social activities grew and when I found that I could also work for the sake of children deprived of education, I applied for the fellowship. In the process of selection, I also came to know that this fellowship has two parts. I am not only giving but I am taking as well.

I will be exchanging knowledge with experience, self-exploration as well as community exposure.

My parents were not supportive since I have never left home before. But my determination and dedication led them to support me. I wish to educate my community, especially in the importance of girls' education for a better tomorrow.
