I am a research economist at the Africa Gender Innovation Lab (GIL) of the World Bank.
I am an applied microeconomist. My research focuses on development economics, family economics, and gender, and intimate partner violence (IPV) in sub-Saharan Africa.
After I received my Ph.D. in Economics (2022) from the Paris School of Economics, I was a Weiss Postdoctoral Fellow at the Economics Department of Northwestern University for two years.
