Filmmaker, Journalist, Adventurer, and Travel Photographer based in Kathmandu, Nepal, I have been working in the field of filmmaking for the past 12 years. I have been producing tv programs and documentaries focusing on social and human rights issues, adventure sports, and travel and tourism for different television channels and organizations.
I’m the Founder/Director of Shanta Nepali Productions and one of the 20 creative international filmmakers and journalists to receive a fellowship from One World Media, UK this year. I started my filmmaking journey as an assistant producer at a local tv channel. I had not discovered my passion for this profession until I became involved in a travel show where I learned to even the simplest of the stories could make the biggest impact. That opportunity gave me much more than just making a living out of it – it made me aware of the issues and struggles people are facing.
