I am an applied economist whose research focuses on development economics, with particular interests in agricultural technology adoption, migration, social protection, poverty, and climate change adaptation. My work draws on evidence from Bangladesh, Tanzania, Nigeria, and Kenya to examine how households, markets, and institutions respond to economic and policy interventions.
I received my Ph.D. in Applied Economics from the Department of Agricultural, Food, and Resource Economics (AFRE) at Michigan State University. My research combines rigorous causal inference methods with extensive field experience and close collaboration with governments, development organizations, and research institutions. I have co-authored studies published in leading field journals and have contributed to research on agricultural innovation, food systems, and development policy.
Prior to pursuing my doctoral studies, I worked at the International Food Policy Research Institute (IFPRI) and Innovations for Poverty Action (IPA) in Bangladesh, where I supported the design, implementation, and evaluation of development programs and policy research.
