I am an applied microeconomist researching social policy implementation and women's career choices. I use experimental and quasi-experimental methods and integrate behavioral measures in my work. Most of my current work is in collaboration with NGOs and government partners. 

I work as a tenured Senior Researcher at the Chr. Michelsen Institute (CMI) in Bergen, as a principal investigator in the Cluster of Excellence "The Politics of Inequality" (University of Konstanz) and at the Inclusion Economics India Centre (formerly Evidence for Policy Design India). I am also a Research Fellow at the Development Learning Lab, established by CMI, the Norwegian School of Economics and the University of Bergen

My research has been funded by the German Science Foundation through the Excellence Strategy, International Growth Centre, Swiss National Science Foundation and the Thurgau Institute of Economics.
