Lhakpa Sherpa, is a Nepalese mountain climber, having the record for the most summits of Mount Everest by a female climber (which is 10 times by the way).
Lhakpa was born in Nepal and grew up in the shadow of Mount Everest, so being a Sherpa is literally in her name and blood. In 2016, she was listed as one of BBC's 100 Women.
She runs a mountain climbing expedition company called Cloudscape Climbing, and is currently raising funds for her upcoming K2 expedition.
