Namaste, I'm Himal Bhandari

Civil Engineer | Structural Designer | Sustainable Development Enthusiast

About Me

I am a dedicated 4th-year Civil Engineering student at Pokhara University with a passion for sustainable development. With a keen interest in earthquake-resistant buildings and structural analysis, I am focused on creating safe, resilient, and environmentally responsible infrastructure. Eager to contribute innovative solutions to the challenges of modern engineering, I aim to design structures that stand the test of time and support sustainable growth.

Apart from my academic life, I watch football, play guitar, and hang out with family and friends. I love trekking, and going out for a short ride.
