About Me:

I am an economist specialising in macroeconomics, public finance and tax policy. I received my PhD in Economics from RSE, ANU in November 2026. My research focuses on how tax systems can raise revenue efficiently while promoting equity, compliance and long-run fiscal sustainability.

My work examines tax design, tax enforcement, fiscal capacity, and capital and wealth taxation. I combine quantitative life-cycle and overlapping-generations models with empirical analysis using administrative tax records and household microdata. A central theme is how household behaviour, entrepreneurship, administrative capacity and policy implementation shape the effectiveness of taxation. I develop computational models in Fortran, MATLAB and Python to connect economic research with practical policy questions.

My current work includes project on wealth taxation in Australia. I worked in government policy and tax administration at Bangladesh’s Ministry of Finance and National Board of Revenue. This experience continues to inform my interest in evidence-based fiscal policy, particularly in developing economies. I have also taught macroeconomics at ANU.
