What I'm looking for

I seek roles combining legal research and content creation in collaborative, impact-driven teams where I can advance policy or editorial work and grow professionally.

I am a motivated seventh-semester B.A.LL.B student and research writer with over four years of experience producing compelling, accurate articles, reports, and legal drafts for online news platforms and academic projects. I combine editorial precision, structural clarity, and collaborative teamwork to deliver high-quality content, and I have published across outlets including myRepublica, The Annapurna Express, The Rising Nepal, Naya Patrika, Shilapatra, and Ukera.

I have practical experience in legal drafting, mediation simulations, moot court advocacy (including awards for best memorial), and editorial leadership as a founding member and editor of Mimamsha. My coursework in International Law, Political Science, Company Law, Tort Law, and related subjects underpins my research and writing, and I consistently pursue roles where I can strengthen content strategy and contribute to legal and policy discourse.
