I am an applied microeconomist interested in understanding how environmental conditions and socioeconomic factors shape individual and household well-being in developing countries. My research uses large-scale survey data and climate records to study how shocks influence health, gender dynamics, and economic resilience.
I am particularly interested in the role of climate shocks and institutional responses in shaping adaptability, and I strive to produce policy-relevant research that informs equitable and sustainable development.
My broader research agenda spans development, health, and environmental economics, with a focus on questions that connect rigorous empirical analysis to real-world policy challenges.
