About Me

Quality is not an act — it's a habit. With a passion for precision and a keen eye for detail, I specialize in building robust testing strategies that catch defects before they reach the user.

My strength lies in manual testing — understanding the user journey, thinking through edge cases, and catching the subtle issues that scripts miss. I complement this with automation to accelerate regression and CI/CD confidence.

Based in Kathmandu, I thrive in agile environments where quality is everyone's responsibility. I've partnered with cross-functional teams to ship web and mobile products users trust.
