About
Two passions,
one perspective.
I came to photography without realising it — the interest was always there. Originally from Kathmandu, Nepal, I've been based in Bangkok, Thailand since 2018, learning the craft in earnest: photowalks, workshops, the occasional exhibition. Street and portrait work feel most natural to me. I'm drawn to the brief, unposed moment — the gesture, the available light, the face that tells you everything before it's gone.
I've been building software since 2010 — over fifteen years across roles from Drupal theme developer to Engineering Team Lead. I hold a Master's in Computer Science from the Institute of International Management Science. Today I lead a team of ten on a fintech and insurance platform focused on ecommerce and lead generation. Go is my primary language; PHP (Laravel, Symfony) is where I spent the previous decade. The infrastructure runs on GCP and AWS, containerised with Docker and Kubernetes.
This site is where both sides live together.
