Thank you to myteachers for helping me understand the importance of networking. Because of the network I buildduring my 1st internship, I started working at Girls Empowered by Travel, Nepal. Later on, I led theorganization from 2020-2022 as Executive Secretary. Currently, I am working as Executive Producerfor a mental health podcast, Utar Chadhav.
