I am a Ph.D. candidate in Economics and Public Policy at Tufts University and a 2026 Visiting Fellow in the Department of Economics at Harvard University.
I am on the 2026–27 economics job market.
My research combines development, environmental, and behavioural economics to study pollution and energy in developing economies. I build new ways to measure hard-to-observe behaviour and use field experiments to identify the constraints that shape behaviour and determine whether policy works.
Previously, I was a Country Economist at the International Growth Centre.
