About

I am originally from Nepal and I completed my bachelor’s degree with honors in Physics from India, followed by advanced training in Agriculture and Agribusiness in Israel. I also received short-term Mycology training from ICAR, India. In 2022, I earned a Master of Science in Desert Studies, specializing in Soil Microbiology and Environmental Science, at Ben-Gurion University of the Negev, Israel, under the prestigious Kreitman Scholarship.

Currently, I am pursuing my Ph.D. at Western Sydney University, Australia, focusing on the project “Nutrients in a Circular Economy.” My research is supported by the Australian Government Research Training Program (RTP) Scholarship.

My central goal is to contribute to global food security and promote sustainable soil and nutrient management to reduce the impacts of climate change.
