I am interested in mentoring young founders in early projects. I've been through many of the things that young founders will stare down and I want to be with them when they do. I'm partial to underestimated folks. I am a high school dropout who worked on landfills and worked fast food and hotel jobs before and during college and like other folks who are whip smart and who have taken different paths. I speak Nepali and I'm working on Hindi.
