What I'm looking for

I'm looking to apply my hydropower design and environmental sustainability experience in work involving circular economy, climate resilience, nature-based solutions, environmental compliance, and ESG or carbon and plastic crediting.

I've delivered end-to-end hydropower infrastructure designs at Units Engineering Consultancy, translating hydrological data into construction-ready specifications for intakes, surge tanks, powerhouses, and distribution networks.

I optimize civil components, prepare bills of quantities and cost estimates, and support IEE, EIA, and LCA reporting to keep projects cost-efficient and compliant. I also worked directly with site teams during construction to resolve technical discrepancies.

I'm completing an MSc in Environmental Sustainability at the University of Trento, where my research examines Verra plastic credit generation in Nepal. My current focus includes circular economy, plastic and carbon crediting, nature-based solutions, ESG reporting, and climate resilience.
