Welcome to my website!

I am an Assistant Professor of Economics at Azim Premji University (Bengaluru). During July 2024-May 2025, I was a Postdoctoral Economist at the Centre for Effective Governance of Indian States (CEGIS). 

I hold a PhD in Economics from the University of Maryland (College Park) and a Masters in International Affairs and Policy from the Fletcher School at Tufts University. 

My research is primarily focused on developing countries, and spans the areas of Growth and Development, Political Economy, Institutions, and Public Policy.
