Welcome! I am a Postdoctoral Research Fellow in the School of Social Sciences, Singapore Management University. I earned my PhD in Public Policy at the Lee Kuan Yew School of Public Policy, National University of Singapore. 

My primary research interest is in gender. My postdoctoral research studies the intersection of gender with issues of migration and social reproduction. My doctoral thesis focuses on sexual and reproductive health and rights and understanding the explanatory roles of autonomy, intrahousehold bargaining power, and socio-cultural norms. I consider myself as a methods-agnostic researcher. I use both quantitative and qualitative methods, depending on what is best able to answer my research questions. 

I have previously worked as a Consultant in ICRIER, an economic policy think-tank based in New Delhi, India. My research there included topics in regulatory policy and political economy, with a sectoral focus on telecommunications and the digital economy. 

I hold a B.A (Honors) in Economics from the University of Delhi (India) and an M.Sc. in Financial Economics from Gokhale Institute of Politics and Economics (India). 

My academic writing and op-eds have appeared in Engenderings, East Asia Forum, and The Financial Express.
