About me

Where soil science meets data.

Combining agricultural science, field research, and innovation for a more sustainable future.

I am an Agriculture undergraduate at Kathmandu University with a passion for agricultural research, sustainable farming, and geospatial technologies. My interests include sustainable crop production, soil science, integrated pest management, GIS, remote sensing, and data-driven agriculture.

Through field surveys, laboratory work, research projects, and volunteer activities, I have developed practical experience in field data collection, data analysis, and basic programming. I enjoy working with farmers and applying scientific knowledge and digital technologies to solve real-world agricultural challenges while continuously learning and growing as an agricultural professional.
