What I'm looking for

I’m looking for communications and media work where I can amplify stories of people and nature, lead impactful editorial or multimedia projects, and help journalists and civil society tell stories that create meaningful change.

I’ve spent nearly 30 years amplifying stories of people and nature across journalism, communications, photography, film, and media training. I established Haka-Haki as a leading environmental journalism brand in Nepal as its founding editor and fundraiser.

I’ve led editorial work for NayaPusta and Aankhijhyal, managed news content at Independent News Service, and worked as a communications specialist on the R-CEFM Project. I also train journalists and civil society members to tell effective, high-impact stories through writing, audio, video, and multimedia.
