As a kid I was always fascinated by foreign lands, culture, and mountains. What better country to fall in love with than Nepal.

 

My career has involved law enforcement, firefighting, emergency management, and geospatial intelligence. I currently work for an international fire service non profit. 

My wife and I love to travel and have lived most recently in Alaska for 2 years. We plan to visit Nepal many times to stay close to family and enjoy the culture and beauty of Nepal.

We both have a passion for entrepreneurship as well as Nepalese culture, teas, and food.

I now live with my wife Norden in Northern Virginia.

I was born and raised near the Swayambhunath "Monkey" Temple in Kathmandu, Nepal. Growing up, it was a place you could walk to, climb the many stairs, and give thanks to everyone in my life. Around the temple are many markets and shops, including masala chai stores. The Swayambhunath Temple and masala chai have always been a special part of my life.

After receiving an academic and a table tennis scholarship from Nepal (2014 & 2015 Junior National Table Tennis Champion of Nepal), I came to America to get a Bachelors degree. I currently have a career in marketing, sales, and business.

We both have a passion for entrepreneurship as well as Nepalese culture, teas, and food.

I now live with my husband Marshall in Northern Virginia.
