Education: Bachelor's of Medical Lab Technology, Sharda University, India
I was born in a family, where every child in the family was instilled with an idea that their ultimate goal in life is to get a government job. Both my parents are government officials and they have their opinion about the career I should have but I have different plans for myself.
While pursuing Bachelor’s in Medical Lab Technology in Sharda University, I had an opportunity to volunteer in Urban Health Care and Training Center. There I learned that working in grass root level can bring big changes. After graduating, I took a job as a medical laboratory technologist. The job did not offer me a satisfaction I was looking for, so I decided to head back to Nepal.
I applied for Teach For Nepal Fellowship because I wanted to serve my country like my parents but just in a different way. Throughout my Fellowship, I want to use my education in health to educate members of the community as well as children.
After completion of Fellowship, I want to pursue Masters in Medicine as well as work in the field of medicine so that I can practice medicine and education side by side.
