I have recently started my career as an Economist at Amazon.

In my academic life, I was a development economist with interests in public economics and political economy related issues in India. I aimed to use large-scale government data sets (that have only recently begun to be collected) to better understand government capacity and to combine such data sets with field interventions to address questions of first-order causal interest.

I was also a postdoc at the UC Berkeley School of Information under Joshua Blumenstock. Here I was using cellular trace data from Afghanistan to study the impact of conflict.
