Alongside commissioned photography and other outdoor assignments, I continue to work on a handful of ongoing initiatives, some self-funded, others in partnership with others, that keep going year after year.
A self-funded, ongoing repository documenting the flora and fauna of Nepal, one field observation at a time. Started after noticing how few accessible resources existed online for identifying the natural subjects around us in Nepal. Includes "What I Saw," a continuing monthly field journal published on the site.

Two decades of fieldwork gathered into one hardcover volume, from the Himalayan Monal on the cover to the high-altitude residents and lesser-seen species found across Nepal.

Photographed and supported this crowdfunded initiative in Manang from 2016–2019, providing free neutering and anti-rabies vaccination for stray and guardian dogs, protecting communities and wildlife.

One of several photo and video assignments. One example is Island Peak, where I followed and documented a team’s ascent of the peak in the Everest region. From the mountains to the Terai, the stories are different, but the spirit of adventure remains.
Watch the vulture film
A four-week photo residency in Kawasoti, Nawalparasi, with Jatayu Restaurant and Bird Conservation Nepal, focused on vulture conservation, wildlife–dog encounters, and the slow work of conserving grassland habitat. The residency concluded with a public exhibition at PhotoKTM 5: Residency Open House.
Drawing on two decades in Nepal’s adventure and outdoor scene, I helped organize this expo, connecting the country’s outdoor community with companies providing adventure gear, services, health and nutrition, and more. Currently on pause, with regular editions expected to resume soon.
