I am a Director at the Development Innovation Lab at UChicago, and Chief of Staff for Professor Michael Kremer. I work on research, policy, and management.
During COVID-19 I was a member of the Accelerating Health Technologies team, for which I was awarded an Emergent Ventures prize. Previously, I was a Research Associate at the Centre for Global Development, where I conducted research on European development policy, focusing on climate finance, aid effectiveness and aid transparency. Before that, I was Research Coordinator for Innovations for Poverty Action Sierra Leone, where I managed randomised control trials, including on election debates and incentives for childhood immunization.
I am Chief of Staff for DIL works on research, strategy, and policy outreach across the lab's portfolio, and works closely with Michael Kremer on external partnerships. He helped to establish and lead DIL's safe drinking water workstream. He received an Emergent Ventures Prize for work on market shaping for COVID-19 vaccines as part of the Accelerating Health Technologies project. Before DIL, worked at the Centre for Global Development on aid effectiveness and climate finance. He also ran randomized evaluations at Innovations for Poverty Action in Sierra Leone and Evidence Action in Kenya, including on election debates, incentives for childhood immunization, and deworming.
