I am a Senior Research Fellow in the New Delhi Office of the International Food Policy Research Institute (IFPRI). My research focuses on understanding how public policies and markets affect the adoption [and non-adoption] of sustainable technologies and practices in agriculture (e.g., solar pumps, soil health cards, soil micro-nutrients, improved seeds) in South Asia. I am also interested in understanding the impact of India's food policies and large food safety-net programs on farmers and consumers.
I received PhD in Public Policy from Harvard University in 2012. I studied Rural Management at IRMA and Public Policy at Princeton. I am a founding board member of research institute for compassionate economics (r.i.c.e.)
