About

Turning sunlight into
opportunity

I'm a Mechanical Engineering graduate from Kathmandu University, specializing in renewable energy systems. My work combines GIS-based energy planning, field-level energy auditing, and HVAC design to build sustainable solutions for communities across Nepal.

From designing solar PV installations for healthcare facilities to auditing energy systems in flood-affected communities, I bridge technical precision with ground-level human impact.
