Welcome!  I am a fifth-year Ph.D. candidate in Economics and Public Policy at Tufts University. My research focuses on microeconomic topics in human capital, labor and electricity in developing countries, often intersecting with behavioral economics.

I was previously a research assistant in development economics at the Blavatnik School of Government, University of Oxford, where I worked at the Mind and Behaviour Research Group (MBRG), Centre for the Study of African Economies (CSAE). 

Over the past 6 years, I have conducted research projects in Kenya, Togo, Brazil and the Philippines.
