Biography
I am a PhD researcher in the Land, Environment, Resource and Health (LERH) program at the University of Padova, where my primary focus is soil mechanics and its applications to soil conservation and sustainable land management. I previously completed a prestigious ERASMUS MUNDUS M.Sc. in Sustainable Forest and Nature Management (United Kingdom/Italy), concentrating on hydrology, and a B.Sc. in Forestry from Tribhuvan University, Nepal, where I conducted research on fire-risk mapping. My academic interests bridge soil mechanics and environmental protection with applied agriculture and forestry, including GIS/remote sensing, silviculture, fire ecology, and forest hydrology. I am particularly excited by integrating remote sensing and GIS to develop evidence-based solutions for real-world environmental and resource-management challenges.
