Bio

A amateur experimental filmmaker from the Kingdom of Bhutan, living in one of the hidden gems of Asia. I'm a final year IB student at Yangon International School and enjoy exploring different hobbies. I find it quite difficult to describe myself, since my interests are vast and ever changing. From volunteering at CBOs in Bhutan to interning at the national airlines, producing short films with my friends all the way to writing political commentary in my room at 2 am, I have had the privilege of experimenting with different passions. However, I'm not particularly good at any set of skills. The best summary of my bio would be "Jack of All Trades, Master of None".

An idea worth spreading

Re-evaluation of Gross National Happiness (GNH), a socio-economic development philosophy guiding Bhutan since the 70s. To readapt the 49 year old concept to fit and prepare Bhutanese society for the 22nd century.
