~$ cat whoami.txt

I'm a Computer Engineering graduate from Kathmandu University (Feb 2026), with a focus on building data infrastructure, and AI applications.

At KyraWorks I work on the layer most junior engineers don't get near: multi-tenant distributed SQL, cryptographic audit trails with, PII encryption, and the Terraform / CloudWatch / EventBridge stack.

I also do NLP research in the Nepali language domain — translating legal texts with the Nepal Law Commission and mining arguments from district court verdicts. Two papers | ICAIL 2026.

Outside the terminal: hackathon organiser, KUCC Secretary, and someone who loves movies, standups, and obsessing over tech startups.
