About Me
I am an economist and accounting researcher with interdisciplinary training spanning economics, finance, accounting, and public policy. I earned my MPhil in Economics from Bahauddin Zakariya University, where my thesis examined macroeconomic policies and inclusive economic growth in Belt and Road Initiative (BRI) countries.
My academic interests bridge theory and empirics, focusing on how tax systems, fiscal policy, disclosure regulations, and institutional frameworks shape firm behavior and economic outcomes. I bring practical experience from corporate accounting, tax compliance, and public-sector institutions, alongside academic roles in teaching, research assistance, and journal operations.
Beyond academia, I have served in policy-oriented and civic leadership roles, including youth economic forums, startup ecosystems, and academic peer review—experiences that inform my research perspective on governance and development. A detailed CV is downloadable here.
