I am a PhD student in Economics at the University of Illinois Urbana-Champaign. My research interest lies at the intersection of development economics, public economics, and political economy. I am particularly interested in education, credit markets, and public service delivery, with a focus on India.
Before beginning my PhD, I worked as a Research Associate at J-PAL South Asia on projects in education and early childhood development.
