At an individual level, I protect the pulse of the planet by reducing consumption of resources. At an institutional level, I contribute to sustainable and resilient mountain development through communicating information and coordinating acitivities aimed at achieving this goal. As an active member of the Eco Club, I help raise environmental awareness and try to be eco-friendly in everyday life.

ICIMOD is like my second home. I enjoy all aspects of my work and feel happy being around my colleagues. I love being surrounded by greenery of the ICIMOD campus and am grateful for being part of such a wonderful team.

I am passionate about singing and am an ardent lover of music. I love helping people, volunteering, and learning about different places and cultures.

I have worked as a project management/public relations professional in various international organizations. Having worked with people of different nationalities for over 14 years, I have a strong ability to relate to people. I have independently organized several workshops, seminars and meetings for IFC, World Bank, UNESCO, UNICEF, and AED (USAID). I hold an Intermediate (I. Com) in trade and commerce and a bachelor’s degree in social science and humanities. I am currently pursuing a master’s in sociology and have basic French language skills.
