Dynamic and passionate professional with extensive experience in music, business, and education.

Beyond music, I co-own Purple Haze Rock Bar, Kathmandu’s premier live music venue, and serve as Director of International Affairs at EduQuest Nepal, guiding students in their educational journeys. Adept at bridging creativity and entrepreneurship, I thrive on fostering growth in Nepal’s music and education industries.
