"Design is not just what it looks like and feels like.
Design is how it works."
— Steve Jobs

I design products that make everyday experiences clearer, simpler, and more human. With a strong focus on user behavior and real-world context, I turn complex problems into intuitive solutions—balancing usability, business goals, and visual clarity.

Beyond design, I’m passionate about aviation, storytelling, and community. Whether it’s flying drones, spotting aircraft, or working with Friends of Figma Kathmandu, I’m always exploring how design connects with the world around us.
