I was born in 1988 in the Everest region at an altitude of 2500m. I completed university studies in Tourism in 2012 in Kathmandu. I started my career in trekking in 2005 as a porter with another agency while studying in school. After one year I became an assistant trekking guide and then a full guide and trek leader. During that time, I completed the Trekking and Tour Guide 8 weeks training and obtained my guide license from the Ministry of Tourism and Civil Aviation of Nepal. In 2014, I joined the company, TT4FT, established by my cousin, Manoj Karki, and helped to expand its operations.

During my career as a guide, I successfully supported and led many groups on various trekking routes such as Upper and Lower Dolpo, Everest Base Camp and surrounding regions, Annapurna Base Camp, Langtang, Upper Mustang, Manaslu round and Tsum Valley, Kanchenjunga and many other major trekking routes of Nepal.

I handled many groups from different countries such as Australia, France, Germany, USA and Singapore. The group size ranges from 1 to 15 people. The age range of the groups were from 11 to 75 years old.
