I joined this institute in February 2014 as a Forestry Officer in the Department of Sustainable Forestry. And currently, I have been designated as Program Co-Ordinator for Education and Capacity Building Section at the Institute.

I have worked on the “Habitat mapping and assessing conservation threats of Black-necked Cranes wintering in Bumthang” and have produce a paper titled, “Habitat preferences and conservation threats to Black‑necked Cranes wintering in Bhutan” in springer plus (open access journal).  I have worked on estimating the range shift and assessing harvesting intensity of Junipers in Bhutan as a part of my Master thesis.
