After completing her undergraduate studies with majors in Economics

After completing her undergraduate studies with majors in Economics, Sociology and Political Science in India, Richa came back to Nepal in 2014.  Like any other graduate, she knew she had to instigate with something in her life. So, she initiated an internship in Sasto Deal. There she got acquainted with Ankita who was engaged in Anthropose Nepal.

Along with her sister, who was in a chaining company that skilled women in garment making, Richa started a brand that dealt with producing bedsheets. After her sister left for further studies, Richa who was left behind wanted to continue the brand.

Accordingly, Richa joined an NGO named White Lotus Crafts Pvt.Ltd. (WLC) which provided free garment making skills to the underprivileged women of rural Nepal. In order to work for the betterment of the NGO, along with Richa and Ankita, a team of four was formed. This team had ignited the commencement of ‘The Mint Studio’.
