I have always had a dream of being my own boss, but I know that it will take time to achieve. Currently, I am in a place where I want to be a part of something bigger than myself, where I can freely express myself, and make an impact in the world. That's why I decided to apply for the Teach For Nepal Fellowship.

Growing up, I was an introverted kid in Damauli, Tanahun. When I was 10, my family moved to Kathmandu and I was enrolled in a private residential school. I was pleasantly surprised to find that the students were very friendly and went out of their way to make me feel welcome. In no time, they became my family. During my time there, I had two teachers who were instrumental in shaping who I am today. They instilled in me the values of following my gut, putting myself out there in the universe, and receiving with grace. Their unwavering faith in me and their constant words of encouragement gave me the confidence to believe in myself.

I hope to be able to pay it forward and be that kind of teacher for someone else. That's why I want to be a Teach For Nepal Fellow - to empower myself, build my confidence, and gain knowledge from experiences that I would not have access to otherwise. I am excited to meet other passionate individuals, work with them, and learn from them. Being a part of an organization where the staff are genuinely passionate about what they do is truly inspiring, and I am grateful for the opportunity to be a part of it.
