I am a native of Saptari, Janakpur Dham, surrounded predominantly by the Madhesi community. My family runs a business, and I have had a comfortable life growing up. During my school days, I was very competitive and participated in everything that I could. Although I have fond memories of my school days, the harsh reality was that the infrastructure was just the bare minimum. The education system in public schools is quite poor, and I have firsthand witnessed the stark difference between public and private schools in my village.

Ever since I was a child, there has been a deep desire inside me to help fix this disparity. I have always wanted to contribute in any capacity I could and become a social worker. I believe that education is the key to social welfare and towards the development of communities. That's why I applied for the Teach For Nepal Fellowship.

Before I applied to the Fellowship, I felt like I was stuck between a rock and a hard place. I believed that I had to choose between getting an education or pursuing a career. However, I decided to take on both challenges simultaneously, and this decision showed me my hidden capabilities.

Teach For Nepal's vision aligns with mine, and there was no question as to whether or not I would apply. As a Teach for Nepal Fellow, I am committed to being the best facilitator and teacher that I can be. My students' education and well-being will be my top priority. In time, I look forward to completing my Master's and being involved with the Ministry of Education. I want to contribute to filling the gaping holes of education inequality in Nepal and make a meaningful impact on the lives of others.
