In 2021, he co-founded the US-based nonprofit, Wisdom Bridges, to support education that bridges traditional wisdom and contemporary learning for Himalayan children.  He has served as an interpreter for His Holiness the Dalai Lama, participated in international conferences, and written many articles on Tibetan literature and on science and Buddhism.
