About Me

I am the Founder of InPro Academy, where innovation meets education and technology.

With a diverse professional background spanning finance, data analytics, agribusiness consulting, and social innovation, I bring a unique perspective to solving complex business challenges. My journey has taken me from leading youth innovation initiatives to conducting comprehensive field research across Nepal's diverse regions.

Throughout my career, I have demonstrated expertise in financial analysis, credit and market risk management, predictive modeling, and business opportunity mapping. My experience at organizations like Code Rush, Biruwa Advisors, and the Youth Innovation Network has equipped me with a comprehensive understanding of both technical analytics and strategic leadership.

As President of the Youth Innovation Network, I led initiatives focused on building youth skills, fostering innovation, and driving social excellence. This leadership role reinforced my commitment to mentoring the next generation and creating sustainable impact through education and entrepreneurship.

My approach combines rigorous analytical thinking with hands-on consulting experience, enabling me to deliver actionable insights that drive measurable results. Whether developing mobile applications for agricultural professionals, assessing market potential in remote districts, or building educational platforms, I am passionate about creating solutions that make a meaningful difference.
