I am a researcher at the SMERU Research Institute, focusing on development economics research, particularly in the areas of poverty, inequality, and other development issues. I have led and been involved in several large-scale research projects that observe the impact of COVID-19 on household well-being in Indonesia. As part of my work, I design studies, supervise primary data collection, analyze data, prepare research reports or working papers, and collaborate with policymakers. The Indonesian government has utilized my research to improve the implementation of social policies. My work has also been published in peer-reviewed journals such as the World Bank Economic Review, the European Journal of Political Economy, the Oxford Development Studies, and others.
