About Me
I am an applied microeconomist working at the intersection of environmental, development, and labor economics. I received my PhD in Economics from American University in May 2026, where I wrote my dissertation, Essays in Environmental and Climate Economics.
My research examines how air pollution and climate shocks shape labor supply, child outcomes, and intra-household decisions in South Asia. I combine applied microeconometrics with spatial and remote-sensing data, building measures of environmental exposure from satellite imagery and geospatial sources.
Research interests: Environmental and Climate Economics, Development Economics, Health Economics, Economics of Education
I was a William J. Fulbright PhD Fellow (2020–25) and have worked as a consultant with the World Bank's Social Protection and Labor and Digital Development teams.
I am available for interviews for the 2026–27 job market.
