Hometown
Kathmandu, NepalWhy They Chose Texas Tech
I grew up in a household with two engineers within my immediate family which influenced my decision of pursing engineering as a career. I came across Texas Tech while I was browsing through a well-ranked school offering a civil engineering program that had a decent international student population. They were able to meet my academic and financial expectations which made me pursue my education at Texas Tech.Student Government Association
