Biography

I am a passionate environmental and sustainability researcher. My research interests are social-ecological system (SES), environmental assessment, biodiversity conservation, rural livelihood and climate change. I am a PhD candidate at the University of Southern Queensland, Australia. My PhD is about social-ecological impacts from the structural change in the traditional SES using research tools and techniques from both natural and social science. I held double Master’s Degree; one in Biodiversity and Environmental Management from University of Bergen, Norway and Tribhuvan University, Nepal in 2010 and other in Environmental Science from Tribhuvan University, Nepal in 2006. I have about 10 years of experiences in teaching through primary to tertiary level and researching. I have supervised more than a dozen of Master’s level thesis and case studies, and involved in preparing Master’s and Bachelor’s level course of studies. I have also worked as a conservation officer and agricultural scientist/consultant in different organizations. I have contributed as a biodiversity and agro-biodiversity expert in a number of environmental impact assessment studies. I have published more than a dozen of research articles in high impact journals including Climatic Change, Regional Environmental Change and The Rangeland Journal. Going forward, I am looking for the opportunity to devote my skills, knowledge and energy as an academic/researcher.
