What I'm looking for

I'm seeking an internship or entry-level opportunity where I can contribute data analysis, econometric modelling, and research skills to impactful business or research projects while developing my professional expertise.

I've supported research at the Society of Economic Journalists Nepal by collecting, cleaning, and managing large datasets for research deliverables and reporting.

I use R, Python, and Stata to conduct statistical and econometric analysis, build visualisations, and communicate evidence-based findings clearly to stakeholders.

My projects include forecasting Nepal tourism statistics in R, analysing disasters and pandemics across developing Asian economies with panel-data regression, and building a handwritten digit recogniser using Python and TensorFlow.

Alongside my Master in Business and Economics at Kathmandu University, I bring prior systems-support experience from Thakral One Nepal, including AIX/Linux administration, troubleshooting, migrations, and enterprise-system support.
