Samita Thapa, Communications Associate

Samita joined TechChange last summer and has returned this year as an EGLI – Atlas Corps Fellow. As a Communications Associate, she assists in the daily communications with TechChange’s domestic and international clients and marketing of TechChange courses, as well as maintaining the TechChange blog. During her trip to Nepal over the holidays, she visited some of TechChange’s participants at the GIZ office to learn about Nepal’s mHealth pilot and their experience with TechChange’s courses.

Before TechChange, Samita was assisting the refugee resettlement department at the U.S. Committee for Refugees and Immigrants. She holds a B.A. in History with minors in Social Policy and Global Economics from Goshen College. Samita is from Nepal and considers India her second home after spending seven years in boarding school there. In her free time, Samita enjoys finding the best local eateries in town and attending music events.
