About

From schemas to students,
I build what lasts.

I'm a database administrator and IT professional currently serving as Assistant Manager (Database) at F1Soft International — one of Nepal's leading fintech companies — where I oversee everything from PCI DSS compliance to disaster recovery architecture.

Parallel to that, I've spent over nine years as a lecturer at NCC and KCMIT, translating real-world database complexity into concepts students can carry into their careers.

I hold a Master's in Computer Information Systems and a Bachelor's in Information Management, backed by hands-on expertise across MySQL, MSSQL, Percona, TiDB, and Oracle ecosystems.
