I am a 2nd year Phd student at University of California, Berkeley, in the Business and Public Policy group at the Haas School of Business.
My research interests lie in labor economics, and I am currently exploring both questions that are central to labor markets in developing economies, and those that focus on US.
Before moving to Berkeley, I was at UChicago, where I worked as a pre-doctoral fellow at the Energy Policy Institute with Profs Ryan Kellogg and Thomas Covert. I have also worked at J-PAL South Asia with Profs Karthik Muralidharan, Paul Niehuas and Sandip Sukhtankar, and Jeff Weaver.
I graduated from UChicago with a Masters in Policy Analysis (MACRM) in 2019. I completed my BA (Honors) in Economics from University of Delhi, India.
