I am a first-year Ph.D. student in Economics at the Paris School of Economics and a Stone Center Ph.D. Fellow. My research interests lie in public economics, development economics, and political economy, with an emerging focus on the economics of technology. I use micro-level data to study how technological change, institutions, and conflict shape economic outcomes. I am broadly motivated by questions about when and why policies that promote efficiency come at the cost of equity.

I hold a BA (Hons.) in Economics from the University of Delhi and an MRes (APE track) from the Paris School of Economics. I previously served as a Junior Researcher at the International Tax Observatory. I have also worked with the Ministry of Finance (Government of India), Skatteforsk, CNRS, and the Royal Economic Society.
