Five years ago, Tenjing Gurung and I began raising funds to support rural villages among Nepal. What started as small, heartfelt projects: supporting schools, providing bikes, and donating winter supplies — grew into something bigger than either of us imagined. Together, we co-founded Project Red Panda to make this work official in Nepal, rooted in joy, dignity & opportunity for children.

To strengthen this vision, I also created Golden Eyes Project as a registered nonprofit in the United States. Golden Eyes Project allows me to combine my passions for art, design & radical compassion with direct action, serving as a channel to raise funds for empowering initiatives like Project Red Panda.

Nepal has held a very special place in my heart since I first visited in June of 2019. Every child we positively impact there reminds me why this work matters: because every child deserves the opportunities necessary to unlock their ultimate potential!
