What I'm looking for

I am looking for opportunities that allow me to support mental health initiatives and engage with communities, fostering growth and learning.

I am an aspiring psychologist with a strong desire to apply my academic knowledge in real-world contexts to support individuals and communities. My experiences have shaped me into a compassionate and empathetic individual, known for my organizational skills and effective communication. I have a background in volunteering, facilitation, and educational outreach, which has fueled my passion for mental health, education, and conservation.

Throughout my career, I have taken on various roles that have allowed me to develop my skills in critical thinking, creative problem solving, and interpersonal communication. As a tutor at Thames International College, I conducted one-on-one sessions and facilitated workshops on important topics such as bullying and self-care. My work with Wildlife Conservation Nepal involved organizing educational training programs and creating engaging lesson plans to raise awareness about endangered species.

In addition to my academic achievements, I have actively participated in community service, including designing educational illustrations for underprivileged children and supporting wildlife conservation initiatives. I am committed to continuous learning and am eager to explore new techniques in mental health and education.
