I'm a software developer and entrepreneur focused on building SaaS applications for the Nepalese market. I'm drawn to problems that off-the-shelf software tends to overlook — the local workflows, the cultural context, and the small details that make a product actually fit the people using it.

My current project is a retail management system designed specifically for Nepalese businesses. Retail here has its own rhythm, and I want to build something that reflects that rather than adapting a tool built for somewhere else.

Three degrees, one direction

I hold a Bachelor's degree in Computer Science, a Master of Business Administration (MBA), and a Graduate Diploma in Early Childhood Learning. On paper they don't obviously belong together — but each one shifted how I think.

Computer Science gave me the ability to build. The MBA gave me the language to understand markets, organisations, and how ideas scale. And the Graduate Diploma in Early Childhood Learning gave me something I didn't expect: a close, studied understanding of how children develop, how they learn, and what they actually need at each stage of growth.

That third degree changed my perspective more than the other two combined.

What I'm working toward

The intersection of all three degrees points somewhere specific: learning and development tools built for Nepalese children and families. There's a real gap between what children need and what technology currently offers them in this context. Most EdTech products are designed for Western markets and don't translate well — culturally, linguistically, or pedagogically.

I want to help close that gap. The goal is to build tools grounded in child development research, shaped by an understanding of the Nepalese social and educational landscape, and delivered through software that actually works for the people using it.

How I work

I like exploring new technologies and tools — not for the sake of novelty, but because the right tool, used thoughtfully, changes what's possible. I tend to think across disciplines, move between building and strategy, and care about the real-world impact of what gets shipped.
