About
A developer-farmer modernizing mountain agriculture
Combining geospatial research, Python engineering, and agro-ecological planning to build transparent systems with real farm outcomes.
Data-Driven Agro-Planning
Using geospatial suitability maps to guide hive placement, orchard zoning, and co-location decisions.
Global Honey Vision
Building science-backed supply chains for Chiuri and Karnali wild honey with traceable quality standards.
Projects
From reproducible GIS pipelines to on-ground agricultural systems
Each project is designed for measurable impact, not just technical novelty.

Research
Deterministic Geospatial Suitability Modelling
A serious research pipeline focused on transparency and reproducibility. Instead of black-box ML, it uses explainable geospatial rules tuned for real mountain agriculture decisions.
Deterministic by Design
Terrain and ecological variables are combined through explicit rules, not opaque model weights.
Transparent & Reproducible
Every output can be traced to input rasters and deterministic transformations, ensuring scientific accountability.
Scalable for Data-Scarce Regions
The framework is practical for Himalayan landscapes where labeled datasets for machine learning are limited.
Experience
Building across healthcare systems, field operations, and agricultural entrepreneurship
